Current Rep - Steve Lindberg (D - Marquette) Not running.
Candidates:
GOP - Jack Hubbard (R-Marquette)
Dem - John Kivela (D-Marquette)
Update 5-27-2012 - Open seat with primaries on both sides. I'm calling this safe for the dems until proven otherwise. I saw that messed up the 04 numbers for this putting Marquette's numbers over Schoolcraft. I'll get that fixed when I have time. The numbers are close to that, and John Kerry still won the district. The district is more dem downticket than at the top as well. This is Dominic Jacobetti territory.
Update 8-30-2012 - Kivela and Hubbard won the primary. I still need to fix the numbers.
Old District (109th)
Steve Lindberg - 17,160
John Brock - 12,496
This district barely changed over the last district. It drops Ishpeming Township and keeps the rest of the territory. It's a safe democrat seat, the only one in North Michigan that is safe for the dems, and one of the few that's safe for either party. Marquette County (Marquette and Ishpeming) is a democrat stronghold between labor and NMU, and Alger County (Munising) also leans that way. Schoolcraft (Manistique) is a swing county. Luce (Newberry) is slightly more republican, but also a competitive county, especially in state elections with the prison influence.
The district prefers moderate democrats, but liberals can also win here in non wave years. Even John Kerry won the district.
