Michigan, with 15 electoral votes, is a pivotal battleground state known for its swing status in recent elections. After voting Democratic in six consecutive elections from 1992 to 2012, Michigan flipped to support Donald Trump in 2016, highlighting its competitive nature. However, in 2020, the state returned to the Democratic column, supporting Joe Biden. Michigan’s diverse electorate, including urban centers like Detroit and suburban and rural areas, makes it a microcosm of national political trends. Volunteering for Democratic candidates and progressive organizations in Michigan is essential to mobilize voters, address economic challenges, and advocate for policies that support working families and protect the environment.
