Andrew Raczkowski

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Andrew "Rocky" Raczkowski (born 1968[1]. ) is a Polish-American Republican politician from Michigan.

A resident of Farmington Hills and a major with the U.S. Army Reserves, Raczkowski was a member of the Michigan House of Representatives from 1997 to 2003, representing the 37th District[2].

In 2002 he was term-limited (Michigan House members cannot serve more than three two-year terms). He won the Republican nomination for the United States Senate, but lost in a landslide to the popular longtime Democratic incumbent Carl Levin by 60.6% to 37.9%.

He was planning on running in the Republican primary to challenge Levin again in 2008[3], but when he was called up for active duty, he was forced to drop out of the race.[4]
