👀 New in @politico: Republicans are saying Mike Rogers is "in trouble" as Michigan gas prices skyrocket.
Rogers has repeatedly dismissed Michiganders' concerns about rising gas prices, saying "We're gonna be fine, we got plenty of oil." #MISen
Did yesterday’s Special Election Surprise you?
Get on Michigan’s Permanent Absent Voter Ballot List and have a ballot mailed to you before every election.
"It’s really this microcosm of the Midwest." -@McdonaldRivet breaks down why @ChedrickGreene's massive 19-point win gives Democrats wind in our sails as we build toward November. But we're taking nothing for granted. We'll be working every day to win. https://t.co/AWOoGSBogB
From day one of our campaign, I’ve said that, if we want leaders who respect working families, we need to elect more leaders from the working class. Last night, #SD35 voters said— loudly & clearly — that they want me as that leader fighting for them in the Michigan Senate. 1/2
In the end, Democrats overwhelmingly won the Michigan special election.
A race Republicans were confident they could win in 2025 was lost by 20 percentage points last night.
BREAKING: @ChedrickGreene just won his election to Michigan’s SD-35, defending Democratic control of the chamber!
Chedrick is ready to fight for all Michiganders, help lower the cost of living, and expand opportunities for all.
I saw firsthand while campaigning with @ChedrickGreene what a committed leader and excellent public servant he is.
Congratulations on your victory tonight - I know you’ll continue serving fellow Michiganders well in the State Senate.
In this morning’s @playbookdc: “In a special election in Michigan's 35th Senate District, Democrats displayed momentum and delivered yet another overperformance.”
CNN: With an estimated 93% of votes in, Greene led Tunney by 19.5 points. Former Vice President Kamala Harris carried the state Senate district by less than 1 percentage point in 2024.

Congratulations @ChedrickGreene!
Senator-elect Greene’s victory is a monumental win for Michigan Democrats and ensures that the state Senate will continue to have a Democratic majority that is delivering for working people.
