Rep. Elissa Slotkin on Monday launched her bid for the Senate seat being vacated by fellow Michigan Democrat Sen. Debbie Stabenow, making her the first contender in what is likely to be a contested primary in a key 2024 presidential battleground state.
“Look, we all know America is going through something right now. We seem to be living crisis to crisis. But there are certain things that should be really simple,” she said in her campaign launch video.
Ms. Slotkin was re-elected twice in a toss-up district after she initially swept into the House by flipping a red district in 2018 during the Democrats’ blue wave election cycle. A prolific fundraiser, Ms. Slotkin, however, has not received “corporate PAC” contributions to her campaign. Ms. Slotkin has more than a year to make herself known to voters statewide, as the primary is scheduled in August 2024, and it is still not determined who she could be facing.
