Gary Glenn Suspends US Senate Race
|
 Late Thursday night, Gary Glenn suspended his campaign and announced that he is supporting Clark Durant in the August 7 primary. Gary noted that despite strong backing from numerous tea party groups around the state, he had not reached enough people to be successful in the primary. In placing his support behind Clark Durant to defeat incumbent Debbie Stabenow, Gary noted, "The same sense of duty that got me into this race requires me to get out of it and support the person I think is best prepared to beat her. There's no doubt in my mind that person is Clark Durant." |
