Michigan governor's race enters general election after Benson, James primary wins

Published | Video Starts at 02:55

I'd say that the biggest lessons that I learned is that the people want the same message. They want somebody who's going to deliver for them, who's going to, who's going to put their concerns first. And Ultimately I won by, by a majority and by double digits because people are rejecting the politics of bile and division. For James, the stakes are historic. Republicans haven't won the Michigan governor's race since Rick Snyder's reelection in 2014. For Benson, the challenge is defending eight years of Democratic control while arguing voters should choose continuity with a different face. (02:55–03:07)
