Chances are that it will mean two open house seats in Michigan next year. One firmly democrat and one firmly GOP but we might be able to push Hoekstra’s seat to the right some more.
I assume that the open Dem seat is the MI-05 long held by Kildee (which I hope that conservative Dem Jim Barcia seeks and wins, since God knows no Republican can win there). What’s the open GOP seat, McCotter’s MI-09? It’s pretty marginal right now, and probably won’t be 100% safe even after redistricting.
Hoekstra’s MI-02 is the most heavily GOP seat in the state and was won by (surprise) an Ottawa County conservative in 2010 (but not by the ex-NFL player who appeared to be the frontrunner).
