As MLC’s Communications and Social Media Manager, Liz Gullett keeps clients informed and up-to-date on the goings on in Lansing and the Capitol.

Through the primary election on August 6, we will highlight races for which the primary is the key race due to the voter base. The candidate’s website, professional information, and a sample of known endorsements are listed when available. 

District Overview

The 28th House District is located in Monroe and Wayne Counties. The district includes Flat Rock, Rockwood, Newport, and Woodhaven, and portions of Taylor.

Commentary

The district is a toss-up that both parties will work to win with the Democratic party targeting this seat to flip it from R to D. Representative Thompson is running for her second term in the House, facing one opponent in her primary race in August. This seat will be a key one to watch this fall as both parties work to win the seat.
