“I Was Undecided, and He Changed My Mind"

Governor Rick Snyder stopped at a coney island in Northville this morning, and The Observer and Eccentric reports that he's seeing success in sharing his message of "Yes on 1, No on the rest" with Michigan voters.

Bob Kenyon, a tax consultant from Northville, didn’t know what way he was going to vote Tuesday on the bridge proposal until he met Gov. Rick Snyder this morning while eating breakfast at George’s Senate Coney Island Restaurant in Livonia.

“I was undecided, and he changed my mind,” said Kenyon, who now plans to vote no on Proposal 6, which would amend the state constitution to require a statewide vote on “new international bridges or tunnels."

Snyder visited George’s Senate Coney Island as part of his four-day statewide bus tour to discuss the six ballot proposals with citizens. Snyder is encouraging residents to vote “Yes on 1, No on the Rest.”

Snyder went from table to table saying hello and talking with customers at George’s Senate Coney Island. Some, like Kenyon, had heard the governor would be there and made plans to attend. Kenyon is a regular customer at George’s Senate Coney Island in Northville.

Others, like Mike McCool of Livonia, were surprised by Snyder’s visit. “I had no idea he was going to be here. For him to walk by was pretty neat,” said McCool, a salesman for Ralph Thayer Automotive, located across the street.
McCool supports Snyder. “I’m there with you,” he told the governor. “I approve of everything you’re doing.”
