A2: Governor’s Race

By

The Detroit News reports on the potential choice of Pete Hoekstra as the running mate of Republican gubernatorial candidate Rick Snyder, an Ann Arbor businessman. Snyder’s open support for stem cell research has some GOP experts questioning his appeal to conservative voters. Hoekstra, a long-time U.S. House member, could draw more conservative voters to the polls, especially from western Michigan. While Hoekstra says he is eager to help, Snyder has yet to define his role in the general election, according to the report. [Source]
