MCRGO-PAC 2022 Primary Ratings

MCRGO-PAC only provides candidate ratings for Michigan legislative elections. MCRGO-PAC does not rate or endorse for local elections, judicial elections, or federal elections. MCRGO-PAC may endorse candidates for statewide races for the November general election.

Michigan legislative candidates running for the August 2022 primary were asked to fill out a 10 question YES/NO survey. Surveys were due by Monday, June 27, 2022. Candidates are rated based on their responses to this survey. There are no outright endorsements in the primary election. No ratings will be adjusted, added, or removed following the Friday preceding the August primary election. Candidates who fail to submit a survey will not receive a rating or be eligible for endorsement in the general election. Endorsements for the November general election will be based off of ratings from the primary election along with any bill sponsorships or votes that occur after the primary election (for incumbents). Ratings and endorsements are made by a balanced multi-partisan committee with no preference shown for political affiliation. No direct bias is given to incumbents over their challengers although endorsements may factor in a pro-gun legislative voting history.

Unlisted candidates failed to return a survey. Ratings with an asterisk* are a result of late surveys or revised surveys submitted after the deadline. Current members of MCRGO may inquire about the reason behind candidate ratings in their district by emailing brady@mcrgo.org.
