by a point. I know it's in the margin of error, but Schauer was down by 8 a couple of weeks ago. I so hope we can get rid of Snyder--I loathe that man more than any other Michigan politician in my lifetime. He is such a freaking LIAR. I detest him even more than Justin Amash & I dislike him A LOT. At least Amash is upfront with his loathsome politics whereas Snyder lies about his.
GOTV all fellow Michiganders--we can do it if we make the effort.

(21,573 posts)I was going to go vote for Schauer on principle of course but I really hadn't seen or heard anything that indicated he had a chance. As Rethugs go Snyder's is not the worst. he mostly stays out of the social issues that make most rethugs so repugnant. The worst thing he did in my opinion was ramming right to work through the legislature in a day with NO debate. The democrats were all but locked out of the state house. That and the emergency manager law is/was unconstitutional. The voters threw it out in 2012.
I feel really good that Peters is going to defeat Land but if we could turn the governor's mansion blue again that would be outstanding!!!
