About Rachelle
Rachelle served as Township Clerk for Martin for 7 years and Dave is a partner of Peaceful Road Farms in Martin which is their 2nd generation family dairy farm as well as a partner for Hopkins Elevator in Hopkins. They are committed to each other and share strong family values. She is firmly convinced that strong leaders need to stand in the gap to protect our freedoms of religion, speech, and health as well as protecting our right to bear arms. Conservative values need to be held to a high standard for limiting taxes, reducing government control, reforming education, securing our borders, and creating and supporting local small businesses to boost our economy from Allegan, Barry, Eaton, and Ottawa Counties to the State level. Serving as Township Clerk is what drives her passion to work diligently on election integrity.
