Georgia resident, John Ramsey, plans to run (again) for election in Michigan!

Perhaps you could suggest some dates and times and then I could put up a poll!

 

Upon receiveing dates, I will put the poll up...as for the details of the get-together, I think they should be done through emails.

 

Looks like Uncle Johnny still has amonth to get that driver's license and file:
