Tomorrow is Election Day - What you can do

Election Day is tomorrow. All of us at Protect Genoa Township Neighborhoods need all of our supporters to do the following.

1. Vote, if you haven't already. That's the obvious part.

2. Get your friends and family and other supporters to vote.

3. If you have time, bring a sign and go out to the polling locations and campaign (over 100 ft from the polling location building's entrance to stay legal). Bring some maps and cost estimates in case some voters have questions. Some people always vote as a sense of duty that don't have all the facts on the issue. We need to reach these swing voters.

The Polling Locations are:

Genoa Twp 1 and 9 - Cleary University, 3750 Cleary Dr, Howell MI
Genoa Twp 2 and 10 - Three Fires Elementary School, 4125 W Crooked Lake, Howell MI Genoa Twp 3 and 11 - Community Bible School, 7372 W Grand River, Brighton MI 
Genoa Twp 4 and 8 - Brighton Church of the Nazarene, 7679 Brighton Rd, Brighton
Genoa Twp 5 and 12 - Chilson Hills Baptist Church, 4440 Brighton Rd, Howell 
Genoa Twp 6 and 7 - Hornung Elementary School, 4640 Bauer Rd, Brighton


Based on what I have heard, if we have a high turnout, we win. However, this is a three way election. Yes. No. Staying home. Unfortunately Staying home will have the most votes, although only yes or no will win. If we turn enough Staying Home votes into no votes, then we win.

Lastly, win or lose this isn't over. If we all win tomorrow, the same proposals can come back later. The Master Plan doesn't need to be just defeated, but buried and gone. If we lose, there's other options as our disposal we can and will use if necessary. Protect Genoa Township Neighborhoods is not going away. It may lie dormant as a ballot question committee, but it is not going away. We'll cross those bridges after this election.
