Donald Trump With Tudor Dixon (Source - Facebook) |
After months of speculation today, former president Donald Trump announces he is endorsing Tudor Dixon to be Michigan's next governor. Candidates were chasing his endorsement which is interesting and critical for different reasons in Michigan primary 2022.
Most GOP primary voters will be voting at the polls versus absentee. When the Michigan GOP owned absentee ballots they had a tremendous absentee ballot chase program. That is simply not the case anymore polling shows that the majority of these GOP primary voters are going to be voting in person on Tuesday. So the timing of this endorsement it's everything.
The email blast from the 45th President Trump came out just after eight o'clock throwing his full support behind Tudor Dixon for governor and to republican primary voters that endorsement carries weight.
For those who were undecided in the race, 63 percent said it would be important to them 31 percent said it would be very important so these numbers are going to shift this endorsement is hugely important to this race
Other candidates in the race had urged Donald Trump not to endorse but instead, he backed Dixon who herself has garnered the support of GOP MAGA donors the Devos family.

Donald trump chose to actually unite the Michigan Republican Party (MIGOP) this time he brought together the different factions of the party behind Tudor Dixon which gives them a fighting chance in November now.
We are about to see what the strength of a Donald Trump endorsement is. In a Michigan GOP primary, if it does in fact carry Tudor Dixon to victory, we're also going to see two women (Tudor Dixon & Gretchen Whitmer) heading up the two major parties for the first time in Michigan history going head-to-head to see who's going to be governor in 2022.
