Republican Tom Barrett has won Michigan's 7th Congressional District, flipping the seat previously held by Democrat Elissa Slotkin, who is running for the U.S. Senate. Barrett's victory, projected by the Associated Press, is seen as a significant gain for the GOP as they aim to retain control of the House of Representatives. Barrett, a military veteran and former state legislator, expressed gratitude to the community for their support, highlighting the importance of representing local values in Washington. His opponent, Democrat Curtis Hertel, acknowledged the efforts of his campaign and thanked his supporters. This election marks a turnaround for Barrett, who lost to Slotkin in 2022 by 5 points. The overall control of the House remains uncertain as many competitive races are still being counted.
