that was just the primary; they
think the election is over. Mr.
Bullard thinks so too. But this
is actually going to be a race.
He didn't get enough (votes),
and I got more than I expect-
ed."
Rep. Bullard anticipates
coasting through next week's
general election and is waging
"a less intense campaign."
The representative, whom
some describe as a textbook Re-
publican, characterizes himself
as conservative and business
oriented. As chair of the House
Tax Policy Committee, Rep.
Bullard boasts about his role in
the passage of several tax cuts,
including the 2 percent Headlee
income-tax refund and in-
creases in the personal exemp-
tion and senior-citizen interest
and dividend deduction.
Mr. Brickner, an attorney
and a member of the Farming-
ton Hills City Planning Com-
mission, likens his political
views to Farmington Hills De-
mocrat Vicki Barnett. In 1994,
Ms. Barnett waged a bitter but
losing battle against Sen.
Honigman. A year later she
successfully won a seat on the
Farmington Hills City Council.
`The biggest issue is the fight
between state and local munic-
ipalities," Mr. Brickner said.
"The state government is ig-
noring local municipalities,
schools and city government.
My goal is to return as much
money as I can to the 15th Dis-

trict. We put more money in the
state coffers than any other
county and we don't get it back.
I want my money back."
Mr. Brickner is also worried
about the amount of money
spent on education in the 15th
District. Specifically, he is an-
gered by what he considers to
be an unfair amount the state
gives back to many of the
schools in the 15th District.
The Democrat applies the
same argument to the district's
roads, which he maintains,
need to be fixed.
The 15th District includes
Commerce Township, Farm-
ington, Farmington Hills, High-
land, Milford, Novi, South
Lyon, Walled Lake, West
Bloomfield, Wixom and Wolver-
ine Lake. ❑
