President Donald Trump to travel to Michigan ahead of swing state’s primary election

Early in-person voting begins Saturday as Republicans defend slim legislative majorities and compete in open Senate and governor’s races, officials said.

  • President Donald Trump will hold a rally in Oakland County, Michigan, on Monday as early in-person voting begins ahead of the Aug. 4 primary, where voters will choose nominees for Senate, governor, and House seats.
  • The Republican gubernatorial contest has intensified between Trump-backed U.S. Rep. John James and businessman Perry Johnson, with Johnson spending millions on television and digital advertising to attack his rival ahead of the competitive primary.
  • Democrats face a competitive Senate primary between Rep. Haley Stevens and Abdul El-Sayed, while Michigan Republicans contend with surging gas prices, an unpopular war in Iran, and tariffs hitting the state's auto industry.
  • Oakland County, once considered a premier political bellwether for Michigan, has seen Democrats steadily expand their margins since 2016, making it a critical battleground for both parties in the midterm cycle.
  • With Republicans defending slim majorities in the House and Senate, the Aug. 4 primary serves as a pivotal test for candidate viability, with the rally signaling which nominees will emerge to challenge Democrats.
