What It Was Like To Ride The Blue Wave On Election Day

Huff Post  

DETROIT ― The email arrived a little after 9 a.m. on Election Day. “It is hard to overstate the enormity of the Democrats’ victory on Tuesday,” Jeff Timmer, former director of the state GOP and longtime adviser to its candidates, told me afterward. But, Collar says, Whitmer “was even worse, she did so much harm to our state.” I’ve heard variations on these sentiments before, at Dixon campaign events and a Detroit area rally that Trump held in early October ― from attendees and, especially, from the candidate. “People like Tudor Dixon and the other people running, they’re just too extreme for me.” Later I will learn that Dixon won Livingston County, as expected, but by only 13 percentage points. “I just know that she’s been helping us out, here in the community, and making sure that we keep our rights as women,” says Shandar Snow, 29, who is a student at Central Michigan University.
