Demographic shift of political parties apparent in Michigan midterms

[Guno צְבִי]

With the midterm election in the rearview, significant shifts among certain groups of Michigan voters appear to show a political realignment in the works.

Affluent, college-educated voters, particularly in suburban areas of the state, trended blue in 2018 as urban areas trended further towards the Democrats. At the same time, working class white voters, particularly in rural counties, trended largely towards Republicans.

College-educated voters in suburban areas, particularly women, have moved gravitated away from the Republican party and towards Democrats, while non-college educated white male voters (the dying demographic)have shifted from Democrat to Republican in recent elections, Wayne State University associate professor Jeffrey Grynaviski said.

Can't shift to the blue side fast enough. We were growling at our 1st district congresscritter last night. He deigned to visit our town, and spoke on camera as to why he voted against the House bill expanding background checks. He is concerned for our security, he said. He doesn't want to take away our 2nd amendment rights, he said. What he didn't say -- how much the NRA has donated to his campaigns.*

It's clear you think fair only occurs when it's done your way.
