Gov. Gretchen Whitmer defeated Republican challenger Tudor Dixon on Tuesday, securing her bid for re-election and keeping a Democrat atop the critical swing state, NBC News projects.

Whitmer, who gained a national following during the early days of the pandemic and is viewed as a future contender for higher office, had been seen as a top target for Republicans in 2022.

The Republican Party in Michigan is worthless.

They introduced a unknown with a fkd up name and no message other than Whitmer bad to run last minute.

If you can't beat Whitmer after what she did to Michigan, you suck. There are no possitives and nothing to well at least about.

Complete fail do to incompetence and I suspect corruption.

We did not flip any governors. Voting by mail will remain in place for 2024.

Americans are either masochistic or suicidal or both.
At some point printing money as nauseam..totally and utterly devalues it’s worth.
That is when things get nasty.

The main issues on the ballots everywhere were inflation, crime and open border and liberals everywhere voted for inflation, crime and open borders... I’m not surprised. You lock down for two years and hand out free shxt you get what you expect.

A pathetic showing all around for the most part but my take is the pathetic showing is the result of dwindling patriots.

True. Was Whitmer another Democrat that refused to debate their Republican opponent?

The GOPe is strong in Michigan, and that combined with the unchecked Detroit fraud machine mean it's almost impossible for any GOP candidate to win statewide races any longer.

After all, Michigan is the state that gave us Gerald Ford.

Democrats are willing to sacrifice their 401K, crime, inflation, etc. for the right to murder children in the womb. Hard to figure.
