list campaign events within the county for all official candidates when notified

of them. Check out our Election Info page for links to candidate campaigns.

MEMBERSHIP MATTERS!

The 2026 election cycle is going to be just as important for Michigan; as 2024 was for the nation.

To turn Michigan RED we must:

flip the State Senate chamber and keep our majority in the State House of Reps.
win the seat Gary Peters opened up for the US Senate.
elect a Republican Governor, Secretary of State and Attorney General.
win the 2 state board of education seats that are up - Dems hold both of them right now
2 Supreme Court seats are also up; keep the conservative and flip the liberal out.

Being an “off year” election, we will not have President Trump’s coat tails to get the needed turn out.

Here is the Trump effect in Allegan County

2024 43,072 turned out to vote for Trump - an all time high

2022 33,590 voted for Dixon; again Whitmer won

2020 41,392 voted for Trump

2018 28,648 voted for Schuette for Governor and Whitmer won

2016 34,183 voted for Trump

How can you help? A first step is to renew your Allegan County Republican Party membership for 2026. Membership funds and other individual contributions can be used to support political candidate campaigns. Corporate and business donations can only be used for certain types of administrative expenditures; they can not be used for political campaigns. Plain and simple, it takes money to get a candidate elected. Let’s build our War Chest for 2026

NEWS FLASH - Citizens Only Petition files 750,000 signatures!

BIG NEWS FOR ELECTION INTEGRITY!

A petition drive is being organized to put a Michigan Constitutional ballot proposal before voters. It will take a huge number of signatures. The initiative is worth the effort as we saw a foreign student illegally vote in the last election and the vote counted. The proposal would require photo ID and proof of citizenship in order to participate in Michigan elections. There are many good ideas that could also be included but this is round 1. Find out more, sign up for updates, and/or donate at:

OnlyCitizens.vote

If the petition drive is ready, we'll certainly be collecting signatures at the Allegan Fair!
