Breaking News - Benishek Gets 1st Congressional NodBy JGillman, Section News
According to reports from around the state, Dan Benishek has been officially declared the winner of the Republican primary contest for the 1st congressional district in Michigan. Dan Benishek received 27,077 votes with Jason Allen receiving 27,062. Benishek will go on to face Democrat pick Gary McDowell for the November election.
This is an "official win," however, challenges may still be made, and it is unclear if the Allen team will pursue any beyond this point. Another hitch in the situation might well be the arrival of a third party candidate, Glenn Wilson, a Rose City Businessman who has indicated he can self fund a reasonable bid of his own. Conservatives worry that Wilson will siphon off votes from Benishek, and insiders report that an ongoing personality conflict between the UP Doctor and Wilson, might further encourage Wilson to remain in the race as a spoiler. More as it becomes available.
