Won my Primary tonight

Appliance BradWon my Primary tonight
After giving up my county commission seat in 2014 to run for the state house and having spent the past 4 as a township supervisor it looks like I'm headed back to our county commission. Not unexpected as i was unopposed in the Republican primary. Our county went 70% for Trump in 2016 and there is no Dem running. Barring a strong No party affiliation candidate filing in the next couple weeks, come January I will be back representing the citizens of the Fourth District
Even more interesting is that 3 of the 4 incumbents running lost their primaries, Committee assignments will be interesting.
Going to be a busy 2021.

I would bet you actively believe in the US Constitution and America's Founding Principles.

BBMWAB,
Is there a congressional seat you can run for? And preferably one held by a Democrat.

Ha. Guilty as charged. I (along with my fellow commissioners) were sued in 2009 for NOT raising taxes. We won at the Michigan Supreme Court.
And yes, I'm a Strict Constructionist.
My guiding principle for appropriations is that every dime we have to spend in government was taken with the backing of men with guns. (because we take your stuff if you don't pay) And therefore we need to be responsible in how we spend every cent.
