AINews Summary
Last updatedAug 4, 2026
Robert Lulgjuraj has suspended his campaign for Michigan’s 10th Congressional District after Donald Trump endorsed another Republican candidate, Mike Bouchard. His exit narrows the GOP primary field and appears to strengthen Bouchard’s position ahead of the Aug. 4 primary. The district is still expected to be competitive in the 2026 House race, with the Republican nominee set to face the Democratic nominee in November.
