Well they had a dead governor get elected to the senate and now a Posthumus Lt. Gov. What is it with Michigan and non-living candidates?

This is a crime. This woman has the godless vote sewed up, and as a result of her so-called "faith," she gets all the screwed-up Vatican II Catholics as well. Detroit excepted, Michigan is a beautiful state. (My parents live there.) But these people would make the whole place into a Greater Detroit--and I suppose Jennifer will call that "social justice."

um, I think you are confused. I don't ever recall Michigan electing a dead senator. Perhaps you are confusing us with Missouri?

Posthumus is a good man, an avid outdoorsman, and a very good family man. Unfortunately, he lacks the fight to do him any good in the race against granhole. Too bad, it looks like king john bungler has given the democRATS all the weapons they need to destroy this state, or at least severely damage it, for the next four years.

Governor Carhahan was from Missouri, not Michigan. Engler is our governor... at least until the end of the year.

Thanks for posting this, I was about to go searching for results.

Lord help us. We are already stuck with sinators stabusnow and half-glasses. I'm afraid that without a miracle, we're facing governor granny.

This "priest" should be shown the same exit door any and all homosexual priests should be shown. The tragic scandal in our Church will, with prayer and God's help, lead to a house cleaning and a stronger Church.

Let's hope she gets defeated in the general election.

Not only did women voters choose Granholm by a decisive margin over her rivals, she drew more support from men than U.S. Rep. David Bonior or former Gov. Jim Blanchard, according to the poll.

granholm, bonior and blanchard -- the three stooges.

dead governor get elected to the senate

I think that was in Missouri.
