Meghan Reckling for County Commissioner

ABOUT MEGHAN

Meghan grew up on her family farm in the small mid-Michigan town of Howell, where her parents have been small business owners for over 30 years. It was there that she began to learn the value of hard work, spending her days on the farm and at the family business when not in school.

While in high school, Meghan was active in both the local and statewide chapters of the TeenAge Republicans. Through her involvement, she developed a love of politics, so after graduating from Howell High School in 2003, she attended Michigan State University, where she studied political science. During her first year in college Meghan also began an internship with the Michigan House of Representatives. By 2004 she took a full-time position as a Legislative Assistant and later climbed to the position of Legislative Director working for a number of State Representatives. Since 2019, Meghan has served as a Chief of Staff in the Michigan Senate.

Since 2018, Meghan has served as Chair of the Livingston County Republican Party (LCRP), where her commitment to mid-Michigan family values and fiscal conservatism has guided her efforts to help elect Republican candidates in offices up and down the ballot.

As Chair of the Livingston County Republican Party, Meghan drastically increased our membership and participation. She raised more money than any Chair before her to help elect conservatives, keeping Livingston County redder. Most importantly, Meghan’s professionalism and ability to treat everyone respectfully and fairly have made the LCRP the best county party in Michigan.

Meghan followed in her parent's footsteps and opened her first business, MMasonDesigns, LLC., in 2003. Later, she started her second company, Victory Graphics and Consulting LLC, in 2015.

Meghan has not waited until she's running for office to make a difference in our community. In 2020, Meghan was appointed to serve on the Board of Directors for the Livingston County Foundation. She is also an active volunteer for Livingston County Meals on Wheels, the Salvation Army, Gleaners, and the Student Statesmanship Institute. Meghan also serves as a coach through the Fowlerville Community Schools Recreation Department.

Meghan and her husband, Mark, a law enforcement officer for over 17 years, reside in Handy Township with their two children.

She is also the only conservative candidate running that has actively fought to restore the integrity of our state's election system. With the far left attempting to infiltrate local government here in Livingston County, now is not the time to elect candidates who flip-flop on conservative issues or pretend to be something they are not. We need a patriotic fighter with a record of successful, conservative achievements. There is no doubt that Meghan is the best candidate with a proven, America First record, to be our next County Commissioner.
