And, we are so excited!  

Dr. Conley was born and raised in southeast Michigan and received her education at both the University of Michigan and Michigan State University.  She is an oncology physician and moved to Northport permanently in 2016 from the Washington DC area, where she headed the National Cancer Institute’s program of clinical trials and tests that can be used for personalized cancer treatment.
Dr. Conley chaired the Michigan State University College of Human Medicine’s Hematology-Oncology Division from 2005 to 2010. She currently chairs the Benzie Leelanau District Board of Health and was elected to the Northport School Board in 2020.  She also serves on the board of the Early Childhood Initiative in Leelanau County and is part of a working group to increase access to mental health in northwest lower Michigan.  She is a member of the Rotary and the League of Women Voters and with all that, Dr. Conley also volunteers with the State on administering Covid vaccinations!
Phew – That’s Impressive!

Michigan’s 37th State Senate District (see map below) encompasses a large area that includes Leelanau County, Grand Traverse County and runs north along the western side of the state into the Upper Penninsula’s eastern edge.

We will need to work hard to get Dr. Conley’s message out and get her elected so she can put all her wealth of experience to work for the people of Michigan!

Stay tuned for information on how you can help and where you can donate to Dr. Conley’s campaign!

Indigenous Land Acknowledgement

Leelanau County occupies the ancestral, traditional and contemporary lands of Anishinaabek people. The Leelanau County Democratic Party recognizes The Anishinaabek of the Three Fires Confederacy, the Odawa (Ottawa), Ojibwe (Chippewa), and Bode’wadmi (Potawatomi); historic Indigenous communities in Michigan; and those who were forcibly removed from their homelands. Leelanau County occupies land ceded in the treaty of 1855. We give thanks to the Anishinaabek as the caretakers of Mother Earth and for their relationship to the land; We further recognize the ongoing relationship of dependence upon, and respect for, all living beings of earth, sky, and water. In offering this land acknowledgement, we affirm Indigenous sovereignty, history, and experiences.
