Re-Elect Doug Helzerman

As a County Commissioner, I have sought to be a team player and have asked many questions to understand the issues before the board instead of making snap decisions. I have encouraged the forward movement of our county to more efficient government, but that which is also responsive to the everyday needs of citizens. I ask for your vote on November 6th so that I may continue to represent you, the residents of western Livingston county. It is a privilege I enjoy.

By age 5 we lived in Fowlerville where I attended school Kindergarten to 12th grade. I graduated from Fowlerville High School and was drafted into the Army where I served during the Vietnam era in Korea.
