Year after year, the auditor general documents the same failures, and year after year the departments respond with partial agreements and delays,” Runestad said. “Enough. These Democrat dark money schemes must end.

Fellow Patriots,
As we all know, Tuesday’s midterm was a blue tsunami. It was the Republican Party’s worst loss in over 50 years—the largest since the post-Watergate midterms of 1974. We saw huge losses in states that usually vote overwhelmingly Republican. Democrats flipped Senate seats in Kansas, Iowa, Ohio, and South Carolina, and possibly Mississippi. Kansas elected its first Democratic senator since 1932. Deep-red Texas sent its first Democrat to the Senate in decades and elected a Democratic governor for the first time since 1994.
Democrats also captured the House by roughly 40 seats with a roughly 13-point popular-vote margin—the largest since 1974—breaching Republican strongholds across the South and Midwest.
As for Tuesday’s results, I don’t believe Michigan voters ran toward Democrats. They were frustrated by high gas prices, the cost of living, corruption, and paychecks that can’t stretch far enough in a state that taxes too much, and they expressed that frustration at the ballot box. Democrats now control Congress and every lever in Lansing, but they also now own the affordability issue, and their only plan to fix it is more taxes. Socialism will only make things worse. Those voters will soon have buyer’s remorse, and we need to be ready to welcome them back home.
Tuesday was heartbreaking, but now is not the time to give up hope. It’s time to go on offense and win back the young voters who have been led astray.
Regardless of the noise from the usual suspects, the Michigan Republican Party has worked hard to put us in the absolute best possible position going into 2027 and beyond. For the first time in recent memory, our party is ready to hit the ground running on day one and go on the immediate offensive to retake our great state. Plans outlining this will be released shortly.
Our future is incredibly bright, and we are poised to move forward like never before and retake our great state.
As your Michigan Republican Party Chairman, I humbly ask for your prayers and support for our state and country as we turn around this national catastrophe, rebuild, and reload for a red wave in 2028.

Just terrible!
🚨Why has Michigan been under a federal court order since 2008 over its child protection system—the longest-running federal case against a state? Watch to find out.

The corrupt Jocelyn Benson overseeing her own election?
🚨 BENSON'S CONFLICT OF INTEREST: It's outrageous that Jocelyn Benson—with her horrific record as Secretary of State—is overseeing her own election, especially considering the fact that she refused to comply with DOJ efforts to improve election integrity.
Michiganders are sick and tired of Benson’s lies.
