Opponent again refuses to state his position and views on the issues

Here’s just one more example of our opponent’s arrogance, disrespect for the voters and a vivid example of his belief that he already has the election in the bag so why bother to let people know what his views are.

The latest group he chose to blow off is the AARP. The AARP is a nonprofit, nonpartisan membership organization for people age 50 and over, and with more than 35 million members it is the largest organization of its kind in the country. One of its many missions is informing members and the public on issues important to this age group, and because it has so many members it carries significant clout.. However, not enough clout that our opponent thought it important enough to answer their questionnaire. He has staff paid for by the taxpayers that could do that for him, but this is just one more example of Mr. Ward taking this election and the voters for granted.

You can click on the headline above and read Mike’s position and AARP’s position on selected issues from electric rates to pprescription drug affordability.

It’s time to send Mr. Ward a message to remind him who he represents. It’s time for a change in Lansing, and the time is just one week away.
