It won’t be like last time: 2024 Michigan GOP presidential primary explained – By Todd Spangler (Detroit Free Press) / Dec 4, 2023
Time was, a voter could rely on Michigan’s presidential primaries being pretty cut and dried: Both major parties, same date, pick your ballot, vote.
And that was only three years ago.
