At least that is what Michigan Federation of College Republicans (MFCR) Chairman Justin Zatkoff is hoping.
“I am going to tell you how you can make money simply by being a College Republican,” Zatkoff said in a YouTube video posted a week ago. “That’s right, we are going to pay you to do what you do best: Be College Republicans.

Zatkoff said the MFCR will only pay up to $100 for participation in the event.
Knollenberg is in a closely watched campaign against former Democratic state senator and gaming commissioner Gary Peters.
