I’d like to offer Ralph Rebandt, Republican candidate for Michigan governor, as a guest for your election coverage.
Rebandt is a retired pastor, former union member, and longtime police chaplain running as a pro‑Trump, anti‑establishment outsider in one of the most important battleground states in the country. He’s already showing real grassroots strength, beating better‑known, establishment‑backed Republicans in internal and local polling after recent debates, and he’s laser‑focused on election integrity, parents’ rights, and restoring Judeo‑Christian values in government.
He’s a strong, direct communicator who will give your audience red‑meat soundbites on:
“Joining us now is Ralph Rebandt, a retired pastor, former union member, and Republican candidate for governor of Michigan, running as a staunchly pro‑Trump outsider promising secure elections, parents’ rights in schools, and a return to Judeo‑Christian values in one of America’s most important battleground states.”
Ralph is available for live or taped segments via remote from metro Detroit, with flexibility for breaking‑news booking.
