Hot dog heiress Elissa Slotkin and other politicians can’t help but pander to the working class
By Charlie LeDuff
Holly — It’s the year of the working stiff.
An election year where most everyone who’s running for political office is pretending they’ve got dirt under their nails, insurmountable hospital bills piling up on the linoleum table cloth, and grotesque battle scars from the fast-food french fryer.
Local case in point, Michigan Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin, who now wants to be your U.S. senator. Slotkin owns the old family farm on a dirt road in Holly, where her grandfather set up a cattle ranch to supply his meat business, Hygrade Foods, back in the ’50s. The flagship product was Ball Park Franks.
The cattle are long gone, but Slotkin has left it to be misunderstood that the cows are still there. A trip to Holly proved the cow farm fantasy to be bullshit. (Neither Slotkin’s office nor campaign returned messages.)
