Sources re-checked September 25, 2026 · How we research
- This is an open seat: incumbent John James (R) is running for governor of Michigan rather than seeking re-election. James was elected 48.8%-48.3% in 2022 and 51.1%-45.0% in 2024. Both the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and the National Republican Congressional Committee are targeting the district; as of August 2026 the Cook Political Report rated the race Lean Republican, though it moved to Toss-up by September 2026.[1]

Issue evidence — side by side
Recorded votes, documented positions and candidates’ own words are shown with sources. “In their own words” quotes a candidate on the topic without inferring a stance. Votes describe specific bills or motions; they do not establish overall support or opposition to a broad issue. A dash means our research has no evidence on that topic, not that the candidate has no position.
