Washtenaw: Governor’s Race

By

A report in the Michigan Messenger handicaps the Democratic candidates in the governor’s race, giving a roundup of their rankings in recent polls. In a Capital Caucus poll of political insiders, state Rep. Alma Wheeler Smith, who now represents the 54th District in Washtenaw County, “barely registered, coming in with less than ‘someone not listed.’” The article quotes Smith: “I am as viable as any Democrat out there and probably more so. I am the most knowledgeable and experienced on the issues.” [Source]
