In Michigan's 4th Congressional District, Republican incumbent Bill Huizenga is seeking re-election against Democrat Jessica Swartz, who aims to address healthcare costs and reproductive rights, while Huizenga focuses on small business tax reforms and reducing government bureaucracy. Meanwhile, in Minnesota's 8th District, Republican Pete Stauber has a substantial lead over former State Rep. Jen Schultz, with Stauber receiving over 64% of the votes as he campaigns for a fourth term. Stauber, a former police officer, emphasizes energy and mining policies while Schultz, an economist, criticizes him for ineffective governance and prioritizing politics over policy. Historically a Democratic stronghold, the district has shifted significantly towards Republicans since 2018. Both races highlight key issues such as healthcare, economic policies, and bipartisanship, reflective of broader national political trends.
