The Oakland Press Covers Gene Goodman's Campaign for Congress

The Oakland Press covered Gene Goodman's campaign for Congress after his meeting with the paper's editorial board:

“I don’t want my kid to live in a county I can’t recognize,” said Goodman, 40, who criticizes Peters for his congressional voting record.

Goodman, owner of Versatube, an automotive supplier, says he’s a pro-life fiscal conservative and a better candidate than the other Republicans, Andrew Raczkowski or Paul Welday.

“These two guys can’t win against him (Peters),” Goodman said. Welday is a former lobbyist and Raczkowski a former state lawmaker. Peters is finishing his first two-year term in Congress this year after defeating a 16-year incumbent Republican in 2008. The 9th District congressional seat is entirely within Oakland County borders. It includes the communities of Pontiac, Lake Angelus, Keego Harbor, Sylvan Lake, Orchard Lake, Farmington, Farmington Hills, Franklin, Bingham Farms, Beverly Hills, Birmingham, Berkley, Royal Oak, Clawson, Troy, Bloomfield Hills, Rochester, Rochester Hills, Auburn Hills, West Bloomfield Township, Oakland Township, most of Waterford Township and part of Orion Township.
