Haley StevensGUEST
But I will be honest, there are a lot of voters in Michigan.
Haley StevensGUEST
I was out knocking doors earlier today in Macomb County, and they are still undecided.
Haley StevensGUEST
and they are hurt and they are confused and this is why i think our nominee is in a very strong position to denounce the hateful ads that have hurt people you know we've got one with tucker carlson who is a racist anti-black white supremacist apologist and we've got another that's blaming jews for the cost of groceries and People are coming to me about this, and they're Black voters, they're Indian American voters, they're obviously Jewish voters, working-class voters.

Abdul El-SayedGUEST
My primary was interesting in the way that we got outspent 11 to 1.
Abdul El-SayedGUEST
And we ended up winning the primary very closely, but we did it without having won the traditional population centers of Wayne County, Oakland County, and Macomb County.
Abdul El-SayedGUEST
But the reason we were able to do that is because we built a coalition that really was statewide.
Abdul El-SayedGUEST
I think we've got an opportunity in this race to do a couple of things.
Ed ClementeHOST
We're fortunate to have a guest I've never met before, which is always more exciting.

Ed ClementeHOST

Ed ClementeHOST
Ed, thanks so much for having me.
Ed ClementeHOST
And why don't you just sort of give us like the basics of the county, like population, roughly, you know, big city, couple of big cities and things like that.
John Paul ReaGUEST
Sure, Ed.
John Paul ReaGUEST
So Macomb County, third largest county in the state of Michigan, about 880,000 residents, depending on where you shop for groceries.
John Paul ReaGUEST
It's a fascinating county, third largest in population, however, ninth smallest in geography.

Zach GorchowGUEST
And I honestly don't know if they're senior and junior, but they're both Michael Bouchard.
Zach GorchowGUEST
He is running for Congress in what is mostly in Macomb County next door, although there's a little bit of Oakland County in the district too.
Alex KeeneyHOST
Okay.
Alex KeeneyHOST
Okay.
Zach GorchowGUEST
And I could go on and on and on, but I won't bore your listeners.
Zach GorchowGUEST
So I don't think it's really a negative at all for Michael Bouchard.
Zach GorchowGUEST
I think the biggest thing he has to deal with is that he is an Oakland County native, which is the only thing Oakland County and Macomb County really have in common is their Detroit suburbs and they share a road.
Zach GorchowGUEST
Oakland County is the large numbers of bachelor's degrees.
Gretchen WhitmerGUEST
It means if you're going to try to undermine our election, I'm going to take you on.

That's the job of a governor.
Gretchen WhitmerGUEST
I think more people would be better served if we all remembered that at the end of the day, I answer the people of Michigan.
