Michigan candidate's daughter urges people not to vote for him in viral tweet

The daughter of a candidate running for a seat in the Michigan state House has drawn viral attention online after taking to Twitter earlier this week to plead with voters not to elect her father to office.

In the viral tweet, which has racked up more than 159,000 likes in the past two days, Stephanie Regan, the daughter of Republican state House candidate Robert Regan, writes, “If you’re in Michigan and 18+ pls for the love of god do not vote for my dad for state rep. Tell everyone.”

he just sounds like your typical, tiresome republican hack from the Grand Rapids area. I used to live in District 73 & it's usually solid republican. Yuck. He does look like a smarmy so-and-so, though.

Since they seem to target African Americans.

That is her dad's tagline on explaining his differences with his daughter -

Ya see it's like this.

She got sucked into that communist stuff in college and actually believes that racism exists in America.

Good tweet Steph. Thanks for the heads up
