[edit] Abortion

I thought Fred was a confirmed Pro-Choicer? The article says "supposedly". Any documentation either way? Endorsed by any pro-life or pro-choice groups?

He is pro-abortion in cases of rape, incest and where life of the mother is in question.

[edit] 2006 Election

Link to Kim Clark leads to the wrong person. The Kim Clark who is running against Fred Upton has a website at http://www.kimclarkforcongress.com/

I'm new to wikipedia, so am not sure how to fix this. - JF

[edit] The 15th?

Um, I know this sounds like an extremely stupid question, but, uh, I heard a rumor that Fred Upton is Fred Upton the 15th, and was wondering if anyone knew if there was any truth to this.

His dad's name is Steven Upton, so no. He also has a second cousin named Fred Upton, who is also Fred Upton I.

[edit] Predecessor

Wasn't Fred preceded by Mark Siljander? I believe he defeated him in a primary, Stockman was before Siljander...realizing the district has been redrawn numerous times, perhaps someone can clarify...
