One last endorsement
On Nov 4th we have an opportunity to elect change in Michigan’s Senate representation.
During Sen. Levin’s 36 years as our senator, not once did he vote to protect the unborn, the ones who have no voice.
For us, if government officials cannot protect the weakest among us, then they fail in their most basic duty. That is why we will vote for Terri Lynn Land.
Many issues clamor for our attention in the campaign ads – economy, taxes, education, etc.; but for us the starting point is the value of human life, and Terri Lynn Land’s record passes that test.

Someone recently told me that he supported Mike Clarizio for District Judge because he’s a nice guy.
I worked in the Clinton County Prosecutor’s office; I agree–Mike’s nice. I disagree with that being a sole basis for casting a vote for someone in such an important role.
Mike has practiced for 23 years solely in the criminal arena. That’s good for a judicial candidate, right? WRONG. District Court Judges hear many other case types–criminal is just one portion of those cases. District Judges also preside over civil litigation up to $25,000, foreclosures, garnishments, zoning, small claims and landlord/tenant cases. Shannon Schlegel has experience in all of those areas as well as criminal law.
Mike’s experience fell under the tutelage of an elected official for the last 23 years. That’s good for a judicial candidate, right? Wrong. Shannon is a self-starting entrepreneur. Shannon possesses critical skills such as personnel management, negotiation, communication, budgeting, and organization obtained by running her own law firm. We need a judge who is able to bring organization, business acumen, fiscal responsibility, energy and objectivity to the bench.
Please join me in voting for the more qualified, Right candidate, Shannon Schlegel.
