Young Republican from Marquette County

Found this cool article from mlive.com, about young man from the First District Republicans.

  • College freshman youngest delegate at Michigan GOP Convention

  • 2/22/2008, 3:47 p.m. EST The Associated Press
  • LUDINGTON, Mich. (AP) — At age 19, Mitchell Foster was easily the youngest delegate at the Michigan Republican Convention.
  • That didn't keep the Northern Michigan University freshman from enjoying himself at the event, held Feb. 15-16 in Lansing. He was selected to represent Marquette County based on his involvement with the county GOP and the university's Young Republicans.
  • "It was a blast," Foster told the Ludington Daily News for a story published Thursday. "It is an experience I will never forget." [more here]
I think this is just neat that someone so young would want to get involved in Republican Politics.

US Senator John Thune will make an appearance in Marquette, MI

Join U.S. Senator John Thune in Marquette on Monday!
Interest in Michigan’s Primary has brought another important visitor to our district. U.S. Senator John Thune will be in Marquette at the Landmark Inn on Monday (Jan. 14th) at 10:30 AM. Senator Thune will be here on behalf of Presidential candidate John McCain. Weather you have made your Presidential selection yet or not please come and hear this important visitor.
Sen. Thune gained national recognition in 2004 when he challenged Senator Tom Daschle, the leader of the Senate Democrats. After another hard-fought Senate race that received intense national attention, Thune prevailed by 4,508 votes sending a message that policy is more important than politics.
I encourage all to come and show our appreciation for what Sen Thune has done for our party nationally!
