Thank you to Timothy Smith, who is running for 

Michigan Secretary of State for 2026, and his family

for joining us at this month's

Pizza & Politics

Discussion.

Timothy is husband, father, and a factory worker from Fruitport, Michigan. He is not a career politician—but a working-class citizen who believes Michigan deserves secure, transparent, and accountable elections. "My campaign is centered around restoring trust in our election system through five common-sense tools, including annual voter roll audits, the removal of deceased voters, and equal enforcement of election law....As someone new to the political arena, I am committed to earning the trust of Michigan voters through hard work, integrity, and grassroots connection. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to the opportunity to meet and work alongside you."
