Will Dennis Archer Reveal Political Plans to Livingston Dems?

The buzz is for the 2010 elections in Michigan is already starting, and one of the most interesting questions is whether former Supreme Court Justice Dennis Archer will step back into the political arena.

You might get some hints about that when the Honorable Dennis Archer speaks to Livingston County Democrats on Tuesday, June 24, at Livingston County Democratic Party Headquarters, 10321 E. Grand River, Suite 600, Brighton.

Mr. Archer, who served two terms as mayor of Detroit before declining to run for a third term in 2001, told news organizations in February that he has been thinking about running for governor in 2010, when Democrat Jennifer Granholm leaves office because of term limits.

Mr. Archer will speak on the interrelations between Michigan's urban, suburban, and rural areas, but no doubt other topics will come up. A native of Detroit, Mr. Archer grew up in the small town of Cassopolis so he is familiar with small-town Michigan living.

The event begins at 7 p.m. and will be followed by coffee and dessert. The suggested donation is $10 per person and an item for Gleaners' Food Bank, but no one will be turned away.

Mr. Archer is one of Michigan's most distinguished Democrats. Don't miss him!
