Clear choice for voters------Unions, Environmentalists Spend Millions to Elect Michigan Dem

Unions, Environmentalists Spend Millions to Elect Michigan Dem | Washington Free Beacon:
"Radical environmentalists and big labor are pooling their resources to boost Michigan Democrat Rep. Gary Peter’s Senate campaign.
The League of Conservation Voters (LCV) and public sector union giant AFSCME announced on Thursday that they will pool together $2.1 million to aid Peters in his race against former Michigan Secretary of State Terri Lynn Land.
“We’re proud to join with AFSCME to inform Michigan voters that Rep. Gary Peters stands for public health protection and job creation,” LCV Senior Vice President for Campaigns Daniel J. Weiss said in a release on the organization’s blog.
Both groups have already spent large sums in the race.
AFSCME has spent nearly $1 million on two separate attacks ads against Land, according to FEC reports. LCV is Peters’ fifth largest contributor, donating nearly $25,000 to his campaign and PAC, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.
Peters has led the race for the entire summer and has outspent Land by almost $300,000 as of July, according to the Center for Responsive Politics."
