Victory 2008!!!
Election 2008 was outstanding for Democrats in Eaton County.  We have a new Democratic Congressman in Mark Schauer, we gained a seat on the County Commission, and now have 9 of the 15 spots, and we have the majority of the Delta Township Board, with two new officers and two new trustees. This is the second election in two years to make history in Eaton County.  In 2006 we gained the majority on the county commission, and this year we have achieved majority status on the Delta Township board.

A special hats off to 71st District State Rep. candidate Mark Eagle and his fiancee Jessica Madden who have worked so hard in a valiant effort to defeat former Sheriff and current St. Rep. Rick Jones.  Good job, Mark and Jessica!

And special appreciation to Sherry Freeman, Delta Township Trustee, who came close to unseating Delta's long-time Clerk.  Sherry has been on the Delta board for 10 years and saw a chance to improve services and save taxpayers money.  Thanks, Sherry, for your strong effort!
