As a Gratiot County resident, you and the 40,692 people living in your community know what issues are most important in your own backyards.

These aren’t just abstract numbers, they represent real areas of concern that impact your lives. We need to elect the people who best represent your interests. The Michigan Democratic Party stands on our record of working for the people!

Whether you live in Alma or Ithaca, we’re confident that the facts speak for themselves about which party is focused on Main Street over Wall Street. It’s time to reject all the polarizing divisive rhetoric and make tangible improvements to the lives of people living in Gratiot County.
