but there was a significant advertisement campaign for Whitmer,

Yes - it was actually hard to avoid it. Even without TeeVee.

the Republican’s didn’t want to win.

They don't need to win. They'll get their fair share of the state legislature seats.

she basically introduced herself to voters at the debate..by then, it was too late. Whitmer hammered her for over 2 months straight with some crazy stuff she said on abortion, and there wasn’t no reply at all...Dixon was a good candidate, but not for a state wide office....in the end, we lost both state houses too..first time in 40 years. Whitmer has eyes on a presidential run is gonna destroy everything republicans did here...starting with guns...your’e gonna see an attack on guns here like you’ve never seen before, thats gonna be her “platform” for the dem nomination. This is a total disaster...

Trump didn’t get within 500 miles of Michigan :)


Not sure how that relates. He endorsed some Dixon and others. You do know there was a major ballot dump after legal fhours (of course) in Detroit...

That’s too bad. That little bit that I saw of her was impressive.

It certainly wasn’t Tudor Dixon’s fault the preferred candidate used a bogus firm which submitted bogus signatures and got himself knocked off the ballot.

Yep...story of many races. They raised no money and were just hanging out to dry. Why the Left is so much more organized than the right on this, I have no idea. Look at how much cash Dems across the board are able to rake in every cycle from small donors - even in races that are a lost cause. The right sits on their behinds and keeps their wallets closed. You can’t compete if you aren’t going to show up. Plain and simple.

That does sound like a plausible game plan for that psychotic woman. There’s something about her overly-botoxed face that is pure evil.

"Couldn’t be the massive ballot dumps in Detroit, could it? Fraud put Gretchen back in, not Trump, not Tudor."

MConnell and the RNC sabotaged all our elections nationwide just to get rid of Trump. These people are the enemy within. They are true scum and traitors.

We must have new leadership or our country will be dead soon. Satan is moving in for the kill, and the GOP is his best friend.

The overturning of Roe v. Wade was a major plus for Whitmer and other Democrats in the state. Dixon was hammered daily in ads highlighting her opposition to abortion even in the case of rape, incest and if the health of the mother was at risk.

Another bad sign was when Trump called out the fraud going on in Detroit on election day and asked people to protest, nobody showed up.

Not Dem cheating?

Oh yeah! There was a whole lot of dem cheating going on there but now it has become normal, acceptable, and almost fashionable. They will regret it when the destruction of America worsens.

“Tudor Dixon wasn’t a strong candidate imo, no one knew who this person was and was not motivated to support her.“

I hear you there, however…

The people of Michigan know ALL about Greasy Gretchen. Absolutely awful and EVERYBODY knows it. Left, right… EVERYBODY knows she’s as slimy as her face looks.

She only won because:

A. She ‘eliminated’ the best 4 candidates early on with tricks (yeah, they were foolish enough to step into them tho)

B. The after-hours ballot dumps in Detroit and elsewhere.

She should have never won.

Any election with vertical “jump” lines ought to be questioned. - Which will probably be every election from now on…
