What better way to kick off my campaign for Kent County Commissioner than with a Big Party? I mean a fantastic, pack-the-Eberhard-Center party. We'll have Michigan Lieutenant Governor Garlin Gilchrist as the keynote speaker and Congressional candidate Hillary Scholten as the mistress of ceremonies.
Okay, the 2022 KentDem Gala wasn't exactly a party for ME.
Saturday's bash was a major local fundraiser and a cheering session for all the Democratic candidates across the state. "A movement," Gilchrist said. And when Dems are on the move, Dems Win.
So ignore all those polls that say Dems are losing in the midterms. It may be traditional for the party that won the presidential election to lose the midterms. We're not bound by tradition. And we have not begun to fight.
The Gala was a great time to catch up with lots of candidates and representatives like State Senator Winnie Brinks and State Rep (running for Senate) David LaGrand. It was also a chance to touch base with Carol Glanville who is the one-to-watch in Tuesday's special election for the 74th House District. Can she flip a district that has been redder than Santa Claus? We say she can. Good Luck Carol.
