I'm Running for Office

Good luck to you, which in politics is likely a blessing and curse.

Never ran for office myself but I imagine its one of those "be careful what you wish for" type things.

Due to term limits my current State Representative cannot run for re-election. After giving it some thought and talking it over with my wife, I decided to give it a go.

I have a broad background that would make me a good legislator. I have a degree in Biology and a Doctor of Chiropractic degree, so I am not easily misled by "climate change" activists, As well as living through the "upcoming ice age" hoax in the 60's and 70's.

Like the rest of you on the forum I'm 100% pro 2A. I've been a Life NRA Member for over 20 years. Competed at Camp Perry (Pistol) and Bianchi Cup. I have been a volunteer at two NRA conventions and as a Range Officer for 12 years at the Bianchi Cup.

I'm a veteran of the Missouri National Guard. Six years as a 13F, Artillery Observer. Sergeant E-5.

I have 28 years of experience dealing with Hazardous Waste regulations and DOT safety regulations. I know how the heads of these state agencies (and other agencies) mislead lawmakers to increase their budgets and power. I'll work hard to expose that and keep a tight reign on the budget.

My election committee is holding a fund raiser raffling a PSA Ar-15. If there are any members interested in helping me in my endeavor by contributing and or buying tickets send me an email to davidg4staterep@yahoo.com

Thanks for reading and wish me luck!

Good luck with your run and thanks for your service helping out at the Cup.

Will you be there again this year?

I shot my first Cup last year and will certainly be back again this year.

Doug is certainly in his own world while he's on the range. Rob is a hoot and talks to everyone like you've been friends for years.

Good Luck1

BTDT. Michigan's 58th House District in 2014. Finshed 3rd in a 7 way primary.

Served 3 terms as a county commissioner. Three years in now as a township supervisor.

Assemble a good team. Remember your job is to talk to voters and raise money. Let your people do the rest.

When is the Primary?

Two questions:

Will the incumbent endorse you?

How well does his platform align with yours?

If he’s popular and has done a good job, you really need his help.
