In an effort “to reach every community,” Barrett’s campaign blitz this year has included a slew of meetings with local leaders, resources dedicated to urban radio and direct mail, as well as print ads, said Jason Roe, a campaign spokesman. The materials emphasize Barrett’s 22-year service as an Army helicopter pilot — and most have a banner calling on voters to head to the polls on Nov. 5, the correct date for Election Day.

But the full-page ad that appeared in the Oct. 2 issue of the Michigan Bulletin — a Lansing-based, Black-owned alternative weekly publication — is instead splashed with the phrase “On November 6 VOTE FOR TOM BARRETT.”

Unreal.

1. A deliberate attempt to make voters think they can vote on the 6th?

I’m remembering the phone calls to Michigan voters telling them they could vote online and sending them to a website.
