Elissa Slotkin is our successful candidate in MI-8, which includes a number of Red counties. When she said she was going to campaign in some of them, it was pointed that he predecessor had lost them by 90%. She said he goal was to lose them by 70%...every little bit helps.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
