Visit DestinationOakland.com About the Front Cover An art contest was held by Oakland County Clerk/Register of Deeds Lisa Brown that was open to all high school students who live and attend school in Oakland County. Students made original works of art depicting the theme of “The Importance of Voting.” The winning art piece, shown on the cover, was created by Kate Donoghue of Sylvan Lake. “Through my picture, I tried to portray that if you have the ability to vote but do not take the opportunity to do it, your thoughts and opinions will never be represented,” said Kate. She added, “I think that it is very important to vote if you have the chance to do so because your beliefs and the decision making ability of others could determine your future.” Kate used Sharpies and watercolor pencils to create her artwork.

  • Number 1, 01/09/2019
    No. 1 STATE OF MICHIGAN Journal of the Senate 100th Legislature REGULAR SESSION OF 2019 Senate Chamber, Lansing, Wednesday, January 9, 2019. 12:00 noon. In conformity with the requirements of the Constitution of the state of Michigan, the Senators of the 100th Legislature of the state of Michigan assembled in the Senate Chamber in the Capitol at Lansing this day (being the second Wednesday of January 2019), at twelve o’clock noon, and were called to order by the President, Lieutenant Governor Garlin D. Gilchrist II. Pastor Kerby Fannin of Word of Promise Church of Addison offered the following invocation: Dear Heavenly Father, Yahweh, You have made this day and we thank You for it. Now we thank You for this moment for which You have brought us here to begin a new session in this chamber. We thank You for Your love and forgiveness, and we pray that we can pass on that same kind of love and forgiveness to others. Many of us are wise in our own eyes because of our own worldview. It convinces us that our thoughts are right. However, true wisdom comes from You and is given to those that hear counsel. Out of Your mouth comes knowledge and understanding. If we can remember that Your ways are higher than our ways and Your thoughts are higher than our thoughts, then we will seek Your counsel in the decisions that we make. You speak to us in many ways, including through those from whom we would least expect to hear Your words. However, we can only hear them when we receive them in a spirit of meekness, recognizing that we’re all imperfect beings, considering that the faults we see in others may be also found in ourselves.

  • Analysis of 2016 General Election
    Analysis of 2016 General Election On Tuesday, November 8, voters cast their ballot to decide a number of national, state, and local races and issues. While the results are in, the work needed to create a better society is not finished. It is important that we each seek to heal divisions, pray for elected officials, and engage with them about issues facing our nation, state, and local communities. Archbishop Joseph Kurtz of Louisville, the president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), congratulated President-Elect Donald Trump and others who were chosen by the American people on November 8th. He also issued a statement calling for all to work for the common good. The following analysis provides an overview of the results in the race for President, the U.S. House of Representatives, the State House of Representatives, the Michigan Supreme Court, and the State Board of Education. The Michigan State University Board of Trustees, University of Michigan Regents, and the Wayne State University Governors are also included as they are decided by voters at the statewide ballot. This piece will also take a look at the political landscape in Michigan going forward. Trump/Pence Win 75 of Michigan’s 83 Counties At the end of the night and early into the hours of Wednesday, November 9, Michigan proved to be a battleground state in the presidential election, defying polls that suggested Hillary Clinton had a significant lead. In fact, the Detroit Free Press mistakenly called Michigan for Secretary Clinton as early as 9 pm. Unofficial results from the Michigan Secretary of State show that Donald Trump narrowly won Michigan with a total of 2,277,914 votes out of 4,785,223 (47.60%) compared to Clinton’s 2,264,807 (47.33%).
