State Senator Gretchen Whitmer filed paperwork earlier today to seek the Democratic Nomination for attorney general in 2010. She becomes the first Democrat to openly say she wants the Democratic nomination that will be chosen at the state Democratic Convention next year. Whitmer has served in both the state House and the Senate.

“In the weeks and months ahead, I’m going to continue to have serious conversations with police, prosecutors and families about how to better protect and serve the public through the office of attorney general,” Whitmer stated in a press release.

The Bay County Democratic Party will be having a Pancake Breakfast on November 1, 2009 at the UAW 362 Hall located at 4423 E. Wilder Rd., Bay City, MI. Serving will be from 9:00a.m. to 1:00p.m.

We hope that you will join with your fellow democrats and enjoy a good breakfast of pancakes, scrambled eggs, sausage, good coffee and save all the Halloween candy for later.

The tickets are $10.00 for adults; $5.00 for children 6 to 12 years old and 5 years old and under are FREE.
