"Ex-House Republican Peter Meijer Challenges Michigan GOP with Senate Bid"

Former Republican Congressman Peter Meijer, who voted to impeach former President Trump, has announced his candidacy for Michigan's vacant Senate seat. Meijer lost his House seat in the 2022 primary but believes he has the best chance of reclaiming the seat for Republicans. Michigan is seen as a prime pickup opportunity for Senate Republicans after Senator Debbie Stabenow announced she would not seek re-election. Meijer joins a competitive GOP primary that includes former Congressman Mike Rogers and former Detroit Police Chief James Craig.
