I watched Ken bring people together, form collaboration, get to consensus, and move an issue forward. My name is Kevin Bersche. Ken and I have been friends for over 23 years. Ken has a longstanding belief that more money isn't the answer to every problem. And so his management of money has to do with looking at the issue down to its core and finding the most cost-effective, performance-based outcome for that particular issue. I'm supporting Ken Massey for the state senate because integrity still matters.

I've seen Ken work behind the scenes quietly in this community for many years. My name is Jon Aldred. I'm on Farmington Hills City Council and I've had the pleasure of knowing Ken Massey for several years. He's worked to form Farmington SAFE to look at the issue of avoiding suicide in the community and mental health issues. He's also worked for many years on the board of CARES, so working with people in need of food in the community. We've seen Ken work with organizations not to grab the limelight, but to do the right thing and to help build those links and help build up the community in general. So, I'm very happy to stand behind Ken Massey and endorse him for state senate.

Ken is the epitome of the public servant from my point of view. Michigan is in a really precarious position. So this is the time to make some real significant change. Ken Massey's aware of this kind of thing, and he's got lots of experience as a mayor and city council member in a large metropolitan Detroit city of Farmington Hills. Ken Massey is absolutely the kind of leader we need in Michigan representing our area.

Philip Mintz
Farmington Hills, MI
"I am endorsing Ken because he is the logical choice. He has years of service on Farmington Hills City Council and was an excellent mayor. He also runs Farmington SAFE, which is aimed at suicide prevention and dedicated to fighting mental illness. Finally, I think the most important thing about Ken is his genuine sense of care and how well he responds to constituents in a timely manner."

"We have known Ken since his youth as an Old Homestead neighbor here in Farmington Hills. We watched him develop into an accomplished, intelligent, thoughtful leader when he became active on our subdivision Executive Board—eventually alternating between serving as President or Vice President as time allowed him. Old Homestead neighbors find Ken to be friendly, readily approachable, and helpful to us all. We were happy to support Ken when he ran for Farmington Hills City Council, and especially glad when he later became our Mayor. We know him as a man with integrity and common-sense judgment. We have no reservations about trusting Ken to represent us in the Michigan State Senate. In fact, his exceptional attributes will serve all the people of Michigan well."
