The Official One Choice All City Team by Akindele Akinyemi

The One Choice PAC candidates for the primaries on August 5. These are our all stars. Remember you can only vote for one party in next week's elections. I am just supporting these candidates all across the board.


13th Congressional District (Democrat)


Mary Waters, former State Representative in Detroit.

13th Congressional District (Republican)

Ed Gubics of Wyandotte

14th Congressional District

No Endorsement

3rd State Representative District

Carol Banks. She is far more qualified than Dale Foster, she has more integrity than Kirk Young and she is smarter than the incumbent Bettie Cook-Scott, who is a complete disgrace to all educational advocates.

4th State Representative District


Rita Jordan. Give me two more years to groom this rising star and she will be too hot to handle in 2010. But we endorse her over the incumbent Coleman Young II.

5th State Representative District

State Representative Bert Johnson is needed on the battlefield in Lansing. When Terry Catchings loses again in this race then we will oust him next year in the school board elections.

6th State Representative District


Sheila Dapremont is the real deal when it comes to grassroots machines. The sister is being targeted by one of her male opponents (who is on the down low) for being the strong woman she is.

7th State Representative District


Carol Weaver. My number one draft pick from Oxford University Carol is a woman of high integrity and high intelligence. We plan on celebrating next week.

8th State Representative District


We are supporting Leslie Love for State Representative for the simple fact we cannot stand George Cushingberry's tax and spend liberal mentality. Love represents just that...love for her community and will bring in life to a district that is slowly declining.

9th State Representative District


We are giving our sister, Rep. Shanelle Jackson, another spin at this thing called state government. Hey, she has had some of her bills signed into law and she is going into her second term.

10th State Representative District

In this race I am going with LaTanya Garrett. Only 33 years old, she has time to be groomed into a force. Like Rita Jordan, give us 2 years to work with Garrett and you will see someone different.

11th State Representative District


The BEST candidate in this race is Jeanean M. Bryant. She has a maverick approach to politics that makes us go oooohhhh...aaahhhhh.

12th District State Representative


The clear choice in this race is Denise Monroe Hearn. Everyone else can go home that is attached to Synagro, Mayor Kilpatrick, Tobocman, etc.
