The 2018 Michigan gubernatorial election took place on November 6, 2018, to elect the next governor of Michigan, concurrently with the election of Michigan's Class I U.S. Senate seat, as well as other elections to the United States Senate in other states, elections to the United States House of Representatives, and various state and local elections.

Incumbent Republican Governor Rick Snyder was term-limited and was unable to seek a third term in office.[2] The filing deadline was April 24, 2018. The Republican, Democratic and Libertarian parties chose their nominees in a partisan primary on August 7, 2018.[3] 2018 was the first year the Libertarian Party held a gubernatorial primary alongside the two other major parties in the state of Michigan.[4] The Working Class Party, U.S. Taxpayers Party, Green Party and Natural Law Party chose their nominees at state party conventions.[5]

Democrat Gretchen Whitmer was elected with 53.3% of the vote.[6] The election was not as close as expected, with Whitmer receiving 53.3% of the vote to Schuette's 43.8%. Schuette performed best in more sparsely populated areas, while Whitmer was supported by large margins in large and medium cities, such as Detroit, Ann Arbor, and Lansing. Whitmer also performed well in the Detroit suburbs. Whitmer carried former Republican stronghold Kent County (location of her native Grand Rapids), the first Democratic candidate to do so since James Blanchard's landslide 1986 reelection. Democrats swept the statewide races by also holding onto the Senate seat that was up for re-election, and picking up the positions of secretary of state and attorney general. They also captured every state university trustee seat that was up for election as well as the State Board of Education.[7]

Debates

Two televised debates between Schuette and Whitmer were scheduled. The first debate was held on Friday, October 12, and hosted by Grand Rapids television station WOOD-TV.[176][177] That debate mainly concentrated on issues and there were no surprises or major errors from either candidate.[178] The second debate was hosted by Detroit television station WDIV and was held on Wednesday, October 24.[179] The two again clashed on various issues,[180] but Schuette made a gaffe when he mixed up Whitmer's name with that of former governor Jennifer Granholm.[181][182]

Campaign

While Whitmer's Democratic primary opponents publicly endorsed Whitmer in the general election,[183] Republican nominee Schuette left the party split after the acrimonious battle with lieutenant governor Calley, with outgoing governor Rick Snyder refusing to endorse Schuette.[168] Schuette also tried to hide his endorsement by Donald Trump from the primary in the general election.[184][185] His actions as attorney general also came back to haunt him.[186][187] Whitmer held consistent leads in polls over Schuette over the entire year.
