'Please Vote For My Wife'

Novi city council candidate Gwen Markham has a humorous supporter.

Among the election campaigners in Novi Tuesday morning was supportive husband Bruce Markham.

He was out since 7:30 a.m. and wore a sign that read "Please Vote for My Wife" in support of Gwen Markham's run for city council.

"I worked on Gwen's campaign last year," he said while campaigning outside of the Novi Civic Center, polling location for Precincts 17 and 18. 

Markham said he helped his wife campaign when she ran for Oakland County Commissioner for District 9 last year and Novi city council in 1997.

Gwen Markham is running again in Novi to support new small business and encourage redevelopment of empty storefronts and small factories, she told Patch. Read more about her in this candidate profile.
