I heard that out of the 3 Ron Paul endorsed candidates in Michigan, Bentivolio's was going to be the closest :eek:

No matter what happens, thanks to everyone in the 11th who put in the effort.

Where did you hear this?
 
From the Michigan Ron Paul State coordinator, who's working for the Bentivolio campaign.

This Election Day, please consider volunteering during the day for Jusin Amash, Kerry Bentivolio, or Don Volaric--at a polling place, talking to voters.

If you live in southeast Michigan, Kerry's website has a sign-up form where you can choose a polling place and be connected to a local volunteer. Please take a moment to sign up if you can help, at this link, right now.

Kerry is running probably the closest race of the three, and needs our help the most.

But if you live near Justin Amash's district (Grand Rapids to Battle Creek) or Don Volaric's district (just east of Kerry's district--mostly Macomb county, plus the Royal Oak area and Bloomfield Township) you should contact their campaigns (Justin Amash's and Don Volaric's) and help them.

I don't know what information he has, but I would have thought Volaric would be the closest, or least likely to win.

To my knowledge Volaric doesn't really have a chance, so I think that's why he said what he said.

Makes sense. I was just confused because I was hearing that Volaric was pretty much tied with Levin. It would be quite an upset considering Volaric lost in 2010 to Levin by like 30 points in the old district.

Yeah I think that was an internal poll. I don't blame him for trying but he probably polled like 60% Republicans.
 
First results are in.
