An election was held on November 3, 2020, to elect all 110 members of Michigan's House of Representatives.

The election was held alongside numerous numerous other state and federal elections,[1] and saw the Republican Party retain control of the chamber.[2][3]

Background

[edit]

In the 2018 Michigan House of Representatives election, the Michigan Republican Party narrowly retained their majority on the chamber.

Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, elections proceeded as planned, though with a larger number of mail-in ballots than usual.[4]

In October 2020, The Washington Post identified this state election as one of eight whose outcomes could affect partisan balance during post-census redistricting.[5]

Term-limited members

[edit]

Under the Michigan Constitution, members of the state Senate can only serve two four-year terms, and members of the House of Representatives are limited to three two-year terms, some of the toughest term-limit laws in the country.[6]

[edit]

On August 4, 2020, the primary elections occurred. Incumbent Republican Mike Mueller ran unopposed.[39] Brad May, a mental health clinician, was nominated on the Democratic ticket.[40] In the primary, May defeated Conner Wallace.[41] Wallace later endorsed May's candidacy.[42]

On September 18, 2020, the Michigan Republican Party pointed to May's criminal record, which included conviction for robbery, possession of cocaine, and retail fraud. The state Republican Party criticized the Michigan Education Association for endorsing him, despite his criminal past.[43] May responded to these allegations. He confirmed that they were true, but also claimed that he had made significant improvements to his life since his convictions, and that through his work as a clinician, has been able to help those who had been in a similar position to himself.[40]

In the general election on November 3, 2020, Mueller was re-elected, defeating May.[41]
