Here is how Kent County welcomed Obama to their city this week:
.........................................................................................................................................
Barack Obama was in Michigan trying to connect with voters after skipping the Michigan primary and disenfranchising millions of voters across the state.
His message is not working and polls are continuing to show that Obama’s willingness to wave the white flag of surrender is not the change we need in America.
For his visit to Grand Rapids, the Kent County Republican Committee released a web ad http://www.kentgop.org/index.php … this ad was featured on the Fox News Channel, on state media outlets and on nationwide blogs.
In addition to releasing this web ad, we published a poll that was taken earlier in the week showing Senator McCain in a strong position to carry Michigan in the Fall.
Below is the press release announcing the findings in our poll. To put this in perspective, President Bush received just under 60% in Kent County in 2004.
The media, bought, paid for, and in the bag for Barack Obama, cannot prevent the citizen's of Michigan from making their voices heard come November!
Below are the results from the poll conducted in Kent County on May 13, 2008 by the Kent County Republican Committee to gauge where voters stand and are leaning in this election.
Kent County has a population of 596,666 and this poll did a random sampling of 1628 voters. The poll has a margin of error of 2.43%.
We are releasing the poll in its entirety and the questions below are the order in which they were asked.
