… four years ago when I was on the ballot, the people in my district elected Gretchen Whitmer by about 3 or 4 point margin in my state Senate district and I won that year by 10 points. Because I go out, I work hard, I'm candid with the voters. I don't pretend to be somebody I'm not. And I think they respect my background and the leadership that I bring to the the race.
