Tudor Dixon wins the GOP nomination for governor in Michigan, NBC News projects
NBCAug 03, 2022
Tudor Dixon, a former conservative commentator on the cable TV program "Real America's Voice," won the Republican primary for Michigan governor on Tuesday. She will face Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer on Nov. 8.
After receiving 41% of the votes – more than 435K – she has become the first woman to be nominated by the GOP in the state's history.
Dixon is a threat to Michigan not only due to her reactionary agenda but also to her ties with political insiders and donor interests. Unlike Gov. Whitmer, she will not pursue the best interests of the people. Dixon has also proved to be dangerous to democracy by supporting Trump's false and debunked election fraud claims.
Families have chosen Dixon to change Michigan for the better and to make up for Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's disastrous administration during the past four years. The GOP nominee will improve education, city safety, and businesses. Michiganders want to be part of a family-friendly, business-friendly state.
There's a 88% chance that Donald J. Trump will run for the office of President of the United States in 2024, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
