Latest News
Thomas J. Smith won the Republican primary in Michigan’s 8th Congressional District and is now set to face Democratic Rep. Kristen McDonald Rivet in the November general election. His win was notable because he had previously said he was suspending his campaign, yet remained on the ballot and still came out ahead of Trump-backed Amir Hassan. Reports also say Smith’s campaign had raised very little money through June 30, which could make the general election challenge tougher.
