It's time for the main event in the race for the two Livingston County seats in the Michigan House.
In House District 66, Democrat Donna Anderson defeated her young opponent, while Bill Rogers won the Republican primary.
Neither one has ever served a day in the Michigan House. So as far as I'm concerned, they start off on equal footing. Neither one is more experienced than the other when it comes to being a state lawmaker.
In House District 47. Democrat Scott Lucas had no opposition. He now knows that his opponent will be Republican Cindy Denby. Denby was on the staff of outgoing Republican Rep. Joe Hune, who voted against the school aid bill that provided more funding to Livingston County schools. Denby's performance in the recent Livingston Press and Argus debate was less than impressive for someone who claims to know her way around Lansing.
These will be competitive races -- especially if you volunteer to help Anderson and Lucas in their campaigns!
