A2: Run for Governor

By

Several media outlets report on Ann Arbor businessman Rick Snyder’s decision to form an exploratory committee to run for governor. Snyder, a Republican, is a UM graduate, former Gateway president, co-founder of the venture capital firm Ardesta and chair of Ann Arbor Spark, an economic development agency. Several publications, including the Detroit News, quote from his prepared statement: “If I run, it will be to win the Republican nomination and the general election and do so in such a way that we end the politics-as-usual approach Michigan has grown so tired of.” [Source]
