Elect Robert Smiley on Nov 5th
City Councilman Robert Smiley is running to be your next Oakland County Commissioner in the 14th District serving portions of Commerce and Novi, as well as all of Walled Lake, and Wixom. With the economy and jobs in the delicate state that they are, it is more important than ever to send experienced people to Pontiac who understand that governing is about serving the public and enacting policies and laws that enable individuals, businesses, and communities to prosper.
Priorities
As a three-term city councilman, Rob knows what is needed to keep the county functioning and within budget; working with cities, townships, and villages to make sure they have the services they require and to ensure policies benefit our residents.
Public Safety
As a city councilman, Rob has always believed that public safety is at the core of government responsibilities. Rob opposes any effort to defund the police and he supports requirements that prosecutors enforce our laws.
Sustainability
It is important to be good stewards of our planet, but the “Green New Deal” plan for Oakland County is filled with expensive and unproven objectives that will do more harm than good to Oakland County. Our economy can't afford more regulation.
