The hard-right face candidate DeVos isn't showing voters

DeVos, who was president of Amway from 1993 to 2002, has so far spent $17.9 million on his TV campaign, according to an analysis released last week by the nonpartisan Michigan Campaign Finance Network. That campaign has been "80 percent self-funded," the watchdog group noted. Gov. Jennifer Granholm has spent $2.5 million on TV ads, while the state Democratic Party has spent $5.5 million on "issue" ads supporting the incumbent.

In total DeVos has spent almost $40 million in his attempt to buy the governor's seat. Let's get to the polls tomorrow and show him that the voters of Michigan can't be bought. While the numbers are looking good, there is still lots to be done, so encourage your friends, family, and neighbors to get out and vote, and if you'd like to get more involved, call your Michigan Democratic Party field office and volunteer: http://www.michigandems.com/fieldoffices.html
