Voted for Trump’s impeachment
Former Rep. Peter Meijer of Michigan was ousted from office due to his vote in favor of Trump’s impeachment. He only served one term in Congress. Now he is running for Michigan’s open Senate seat. Democrat Debbie Stabenow is retiring.
There are more than a dozen candidates running for the seat that Stabenow held for twenty years. For reasons unknown, Meijer decided to run for the Senate seat though he was kicked out of the House by his district’s voters. How does he plan to win a statewide office when the voters in his own district don’t support him?

“My wife and I prayed hard about this race and how we can best serve our state and our nation. We considered every aspect of the campaign, and are confident we have the best chance of taking back this seat for the Republicans and fighting hard for a conservative future,” Meijer said in a statement on X, formerly known as Twitter.
“We are in dark and uncertain times, but we have made it through worse. The challenges are great, but so is our country. If we are to see another great American century, we need leaders who aren’t afraid to be bold, will do the work, and can’t be bought.
