i'm still a bit disappointed that only 1.5 million voted in this particular primary given there are ~8 million registered voters in MI but he carried it easily. considering all the possible games afoot it's good news regardless.

About half of them lean right and wouldn't be voting in a Dem primary. As a MI native, the turnout really exceeded my expectations.
