Name one person who ran in the GOP gubernatorial primary that you heard of before.
Where is Mike Cox? Brian Calley? Bill Schuette?
The GOP is not putting up a fight this election season because of the upcoming recession that they want to blame Democrats for.
Simple as that.

What a circus (MI GOP Convention)...
Re: What a circus (MI GOP Convention)...
I figured one of the known Republicans would have taken a break from what they're doing now to run, but then again, my impression has always been that the GOP phoned this one in a long time ago with hopes of blaming the Democrats for the oncoming recession.Mike wrote: ↑Thu Sep 08, 2022 12:05 pmCox is currently running his own law practice, just saw an ad for it the other day. (One of multiple aiming to appeal to those suffering from the effects of Camp Lejeune, though his own ad also points out his having served there in the Marine Corps.)
Calley is currently president + CEO of the Small Business Association of Michigan.

Would have been a great opportunity for any republican with any notoriety to run, except for Lee Chatfield that is.

With James Craig out of contention, he would've made a good "consensus" candidate.
An argument can also be made that Tom Leonard should've sought to run for Governor as opposed to AG.
Plenty of wealthy liberals out there. Look at how the ultra wealthy enclaves of California and Massachusetts generally vote. Jeff Bezos isn't a Republican, last time I checked. Warren Buffett as well.
