2042 Gubernatorial Election In Michigan

Incumbent Governor and former state legislator Mason Pressler (Farmer-Labor; Bay City) runs for re-election, facing republican Challenger from Marquette Red Lion, and a write in campaign from Umichvoter. After his successful 2038 run against both a democrat and republican, Pressler remains popular, winning the Farmer-Labor primary unanimously and securing the democratic endorsement. Former state senator and representative Red Lion won the republican primary with slight opposition from liberal republican nobody. Red lion resigned from his seat congress after a scandal tying him to an energy company that polluted water in his district came out. After this he unsuccessfully ran for senate in 2038 against former state rep Midwest Politics. Despite attaining the democratic endorsement, many resister libs we’re frustrated with Pressler’s “worker first” policies. This sparked a write in campaign from state rep Umichvoter from Ann Arbor.
