Your Weekly Michigan Political Brief

A rundown of Michigan election endorsements shows Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed backed by Michigan Jews for Democracy, the Human Rights Campaign PAC and MI Poder, while the Detroit Regional Chamber PAC rolled out a mixed slate of Democratic and Republican House candidates and the Michigan Cannabis Industry Association backed Republican gubernatorial nominee John James over his cannabis-industry stance. The Chamber's PAC notably issued no new endorsement for governor after its earlier pick, Mike Duggan's independent bid, folded.

Additional endorsements piled up down-ballot, from AFGE's federal-worker-focused House picks to SEIU Healthcare and CWA backing individual state House candidates, alongside a $3 million Latino voter outreach push from Somos Votantes. The Michigan Townships Association also joined a bipartisan push urging voters to reject Proposal 1, a ballot measure that would initiate a state constitutional convention.
