"2024 Michigan Primary: Key Insights for Voters"

Michigan Democrats and Republicans are holding their presidential primaries today, with President Biden and former President Donald Trump vying for their party's delegates. Trump's only remaining major challenger, former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, faces an uphill battle after losing by almost 20 percentage points in South Carolina. Biden's biggest challenge in the Democratic primary is the "uncommitted" option on the ballot, as a protest against his support for Israel. Michigan's shift to February primaries has caused complications for Republicans, who won't allocate the bulk of their delegates until March 2 due to RNC rules. Despite efforts to oust the Michigan party chair, chaos and infighting within the Republican party persist. Additionally, some Democrats plan to vote "uncommitted" as a form of protest, potentially signaling trouble for Biden in the fall.
