UFO SEZ "VOTE" --- TUESDAY AUGUST 3RD

UFO FACTORY is only voting the Democratic ballot in the primary election being held tomorrow, August 3. Because in Detroit in Summer 2010 the best options for representation are mostly on the Democratic ballot. And the primary is set up so you’ve got to pick one or the other party. Yes the system sucks, but not voting isn’t the right action and won’t make a change. The politicians listen to constituents who vote. So vote and then bitch to the people in office!!!! Or let them know that they are doing a good job. And spread the message.
Below you will find some exceptional picks (****) who we know will effectively and wholeheartedly represent our concerns for the environment, social justice, education and jobs. UFO FACTORY has seen (****) participating at meetings for the people by the people. UFO FACTORY has witnessed (****) cleaning up parks and protesting the big business polluters who have gotten away with looting Detroit for decades. We are impressed and believe that (****) will work for the people with the people. We offer up some other picks somewhat hesitantly, but in the face of opponents who are a very scary alternative. And for some State House seats we are sorry to say we couldn’t find a reason to vote for anyone running.
