Michigan will be “purple from now until November,” Rep. Debbie Dingell says 07:27

Washington — The 2024 presidential race heads to Michigan Tuesday, which is holding its primary for both Democrats and Republicans on Tuesday. Voters in Michigan have had a number of options available to cast their ballots, with both absentee and in-person early voting opportunities, and on Election Day, polls will be also be open. 

For those who didn’t request an absentee ballot and missed the early voting period, here’s what to know about the hours when you can vote. 

Donald Trump and Nikki Haley are the major Republican candidates in Michigan’s GOP primary, and President Biden does not have a major primary challenger in the Democratic contest. But Mr. Biden faces some headwinds here: many in the large community of Arab and Muslim Americans in Michigan who voted for him in 2020 oppose the president’s stance on the Israel-Hamas war. They’re hoping to send a message to him that they’re unhappy with U.S. support for Israel in the conflict with Gaza by voting “uncommitted” during the primary.

In late December, the Michigan Supreme Court rejected an appeal by a group of voters in the state who sought to challenge Trump’s candidacy under the Constitution’s “insurrection clause.”
