Why I support Haley Stevens
I’m supporting the progressive candidate in the congressional district just north of mine: Haley Stevens was Chief of Staff on Obama’s auto bailout operation, and she has led “innovation programs across the country, helping small and medium-sized manufacturers grow” by harnessing new technology. She impressed me when she spoke at Detroit’s March for Science in 2017.
I’m reaching across to my neighboring congressional district because my own district (MI-13) selected Rashida Tlaib in our primary, and my district has an overwhelming majority of Democrats. Therefore, I do not need to campaign for Rashida. Haley is a progressive Democrat, and I want to see a Democrat take Michigan’s 11th congressional district away from the Republicans. Plus 1 for the D’s and -1 for the R's.
Haley’s Priorities
Haley’s opponent: Trumpelganger and puppet
Haley’s opponent is not a bad person, but she:
- Wants to repeal/replace the ACA.
- Chaired the Velveeta Vulgarian’s campaign in Michigan.
- Supports every single one of the orange bully’s policies and everything he’s done.
Haley’s opponent is the Russian asset’s doppelgänger and puppet. Please help us keep Haley’s opponent out of office.
Take away a Republican seat in the House
Haley hopes to replace the insatiable, reprehensible, and execrable Rupubigreedy Dave Trott, who has made millions by harvesting tears and dollars from Michganders struggling to pay mortgages. In 2017, when Trott refused to participate in any town hall, we put a chicken on the podium to represent him, since he would not represent his constituents. Maybe you remember the nearby picture.
Trott subsequently decided not to run for the office he was occupying.
Let's give his seat to a Democrat!
