In the spring of 2013, I was honored to be appointed Eaton County Prosecuting Attorney by Circuit Court Judges Janice K. Cunningham and Jeffrey L. Sauter. That appointment began a decade long journey of service, accountability, and justice, one that I have proudly continued by winning four consecutive elections, including the county’s first contested prosecutor’s race since 1972. Today, I am ready to take that experience to the next level, and that is why I am running to become Michigan’s next Attorney General.

​

For the past 30 years, I have dedicated my career to the pursuit of justice, first as a front-line prosecutor, then as Eaton County’s chief law enforcement officer, and always as a public servant committed to protecting both public safety and fairness under the law. My record includes prosecuting and securing convictions in some of our community’s most serious cases, including murder, rape, armed robbery, and large-scale drug trafficking, and even securing prosecutions of elected officials and individuals committing ballot theft. At the same time, I have worked to strengthen our justice system by building a nationally recognized Economic Crimes Unit and expanding access to innovative specialty courts that give deserving offenders a second chance while still holding them accountable.

​

As Attorney General, I will bring that same no nonsense, tough but fair approach to serving the people of Michigan. I believe our state deserves a top law enforcement officer who is experienced, steady handed, and focused on what truly matters. Protecting victims, defending our constitutional rights, and upholding the rule of law without fear or favor must always come first.

 

This campaign will be a true statewide effort, and I know it will not be easy. Reaching voters in every corner of Michigan will take hard work, energy, and the support of people who believe in restoring trust and integrity to our justice system. Your help, whether through a contribution, putting up a yard sign, or simply spreading the word, is essential to building a system that works for everyone.

​

Michigan deserves an Attorney General who understands what it means to prosecute cases, lead with integrity, and make our communities safer. I am ready to serve, and with your support, we will win this race together.

​

Thank you for standing with me, and together we can work together to take Michigan back.​

​

Sincerely,

​

Doug Lloyd
