    There is a reason . . . (none / 0) (#1)

    . . . that the Congressman currently representing Michigan's 3rd District, Justin Amash, announced his 2010 candidacy the day before Congressman Ehlers announced his retirement.  (Yes, Justin Amash fully intended to primary Vern Ehlers.)

    Likewise, there is a reason that the proposed 2011 Congressional District Reapportionment was drawn to potentially pit the freshman congressman against Mark Schauer, as well as a potential primary challenge by way of Joe Schwarz, while simultaneously cutting the voting population of Kent County almost exactly in half.

    And likewise there is a reason that two members of the leadership of the Independence Caucus of Kent County made an appearance last Tuesday morning before the House Redistricting & Elections Committee to testify in opposition to H.B. 4780.  (That actually caught the republicans on the committee quite by surprise, as they apparently thought that two conservatives from the west side would surely support them in their efforts.)
