Booher said he plans to explore running for the 35th Senate District, an 11-county region in northwest Michigan currently held by Sen. Michelle McManus. Like Booher, McManus won’t be able to seek another term after 2010.

Booher said over the last four years, he has acquired a lot of experience. Looking ahead, he said experience is something he’d like to continue to give to northern Michigan.
"With the experience we have now, we lose all that if we don’t take the shot and look at the Senate," Booher said.

Thanks but, no thanks! We don't really need your experience. You know how the public is complaining about CEOs getting bonuses just before their companies got bailout funds, that's what it would be like if Booher got McManus' Senate seat.
Another major driving force in his decision will be ensuring the Republican party holds onto the position, he said.

Spare me. It's time to vote for people who put their constituents interests and needs above the party's wants.
Sen. Michelle McManus, R-Lake Leelanau, currently holds the position. However, due to term limits, McManus will not be able to seek another term when her term expires in 2010.
...
The district includes the counties of Leelanau, Benzie, Manistee, Wexford, Kalkaska, Missaukee, Roscommon, Clare, Oscela, Lake and Mecosta.
Booher currenlty represents the 102nd District, which includes Osceola, Wexford and Mecosta counties
I've heard praise about what Booher has done down in Lansing but what has he brought back home?
Unemployment
Wexford: 15.1%
Osceola: 12.5%
Mecosta: 11.2%
