Election update
I wanted to let everybody know that we won our race late last night with 50.6%. It was another long night as we did not get the vote totals until 3:00 in the morning. Four years ago we fell behind early and had to slowly climb back the rest of the night. This year we got out a decent size lead and held on due to the onslaught of inner city voters. While I do not like it being that close, I am pleased we did as well as we did considering the bloodbath the rest of the Republicans took across the state and nationwide. We lost the state house of reps but we held the state senate pending two recounts. It's weird to win by only 1428 votes and not be the closest race. We now have the nickname of landslide Vanwoerkom.

Congrats, Fetz. You've worked hard for Jerry. Muskegon Chronicle indicated that you guys lost...I'm glad to hear otherwise.
Next stop Washington?
Whew! I was looking frantically all over the internet last night trying to find out the results of your race! So how long now until you guys run for the US senate?!?
Congrats fetz
I'm glad Jerry didn't lose by one or two votes. Beth & I would've felt awful for moving out of Jerry's district.
Congrats.
Have any idea of what's ahead after the next 4 years?
Will you guys take on Levin in a couple of years?
