Help the Mark Schauer Campaign Win the 7th District!
Right now the polls show Mark Schauer leads Tim Walberg by 6%. With less than 40 days to go, we have to keep the momentum going. We have a great opportunity to get rid of one of Michigan's worst Congressman and replace him with someone who truly cares about his constituents and Michigan. We make phone calls Monday-Thursday from 4PM-8PM, Friday 3PM-6PM, and Sunday 5PM-8PM to let voters in the 7th Congressional District know that Mark Schauer is the candidate to vote for on November 4th. We knock doors Monday-Thursday from 4PM-7PM, every Saturday 10AM-1PM and from 2PM-4PM and every Sunday 1PM-4PM. Anytime you are available to help, please let us know. Even one hour of your time makes a huge difference! Please contact Maureen or Gabrielle at (734) 997-9130 to get involved.
