11/2/12 - For the second time in just over three weeks, the national âRebuild America, Defeat Obamaâ tour held a rally on the shores of the Brighton Mill Pond yesterday. The tour combines entertainers, political speakers, and local politicians at its rallies to promote Republican candidates and criticize the Obama administration. Tour officials say they originally planned to visit states all across the union, but have since narrowed their efforts to five battleground states to more effectively influence the result of the election. More than 200 people attended the rally, which included senate candidate Pete Hoekstra, State Senator Joe Hune, and State Representative Bill Rogers. Presenters declared that voters have already decided who to vote for, the main message now is to get out to the polls on Tuesday. Organizers said they decided to return to Brighton after visiting less than a month ago because of the strong positive reception they received in the area. (TD)
