4th Congressional District Debate
|
 The Republican Parties of Clinton, Gratiot, and Shiawassee Counties will host a candidate debate between the Republican contenders for Michigan's 4th Congressional District, a seat currently held by retiring Congressman Dave Camp. The event will feature all three Republican candidates: Peter Konetchy, Paul Mitchell, and Michigan State Senator John Moolenaar. The venue is the Rodney B. Wilson Center Auditorium, 101 W. Cass Street, St. Johns, Tuesday, July 8th. Doors open at 6:00pm and the debate will begin at 6:30pm and end at 9:00pm. Admission is free! Don't miss this opportunity to hear where each of these candidates stand on the issues that are important to all of us. The 4th Congressional district is predominantly Republican so the winner of the August 5th primary among these three will most likely be our next Congressman. We need someone who will hear our concerns, honor the rule of law, protect our constitution, and reduce the size and over reach of the federal government. |

Dr. Steele is currently in the full-time practice of cardiology in Michigan, is a University of Michigan graduate, and is running for a University of Michigan Regent seat.
