Endorsements: Free Press picks for Michigan US House, Senate and House in Nov. 5 election
The Detroit Free Press Editorial Board has endorsed the following candidates in the Nov. 5 general election. In some instances, we have affirmed the bona fides of an incumbent who faces no, or no serious, opposition this fall. This story will be updated as additional endorsements are published.
How to vote
Local clerks mailed absentee ballots to Michigan voters on Sept. 26. Registered voters may cast ballots early, in person, from Oct. 26 to Nov. 3. In some communities, early voting begins even sooner — in Detroit, it's Oct. 19. Check with your local clerk for early voting dates and the location of early voting sites and ballot dropboxes. And, of course, you can vote — and register to vote — in person on Election Day, Nov. 5. Check your voter registration or find your polling place on the Michigan Secretary of State website.
