How are things looking for him in the Senate race?

He darned near took Stabmenow's seat last time, and Peters is the weaker candidate!

I am hopeful. He could coat tail his way to a win.

The negative ads on the 6 o'clock news are effective. Pathetic looking seniors as the visual with narrator saying James is against insurance for pre-existing conditions. Not quite true but that doesn't matter in political ads.

Conversely, the negative ads against Peters are effective as well. "Invisible" Peters was absent 183 times.

Then you have seniors saying they are for Biten , because Trump will take the Social Security. I hear that on my morning walks around the lake aka retirement kind of community.

Then try to get an Unlock MI petition signed, and the old ladies turn into Karen's

I see more BiteMe / Cameltoe / PeterEater signs than Trump/Pence/James signs

Come to think of it, I can start drawing Social Security now.

Of course he has a chance. He's a new candidate and is running neck and neck with a career asshat. So there's that.

For Peters (or Stabenow) to have an unknown, untested, inexperienced candidate poll close to them after an entire career spent in politics shows how much disdain the public has for their policies.

That is GOOD NEWS.  He has been behind for most of this year.

Unfortunately, as another thread indicates, "The Fix Is In".  The plethora of straight ticket fraudulent ballots that give Michigan to Biden will drag Peters back in on their coat tails.

MHO, YMMV, etc.  Be well.

The desperate lying ads that Peters has running makes me think he is worried.

FYI, ...a NYT "poll" (which probably is always "favorable" to D sampling) shows James neck-n-neck:

https://johnjamesforsenate.com/tied-race/
Livonia, Mich. — A recent poll from The New York Times/Siena College shows the distance between John James and Michigan’s U.S. Senate seat is just one percentage point.

Perhaps the most interesting result: Gary Peters (D) holds just a 1 point lead over John James (R), 43-42, in the race for US Senate in Michigan, down from a 10 point lead in June — Nate Cohn (@Nate_Cohn) October 12, 2020

“In a 2019 survey, over a third of Michigan voters said they’d never heard of their junior senator. And James was once again a fundraising machine, out-raising Peters early on in a year when most Democrats were piling up huge money advantages.”

James lost by about 70K votes per news.

https://johnjamesforsenate.com/fair-and-honest/

“This campaign is not about me, it never has been. It’s about the People of Michigan. Every vote must count, and elections must be fair and honest.

“Fair elections are at the foundation of representative democracy. American citizens deserve to know that the democratic process has not been circumvented by the powerful or politically connected. While not everyone wins in an election, voters must be confident that the election was fair and honest.

“Failure to do so, is the end of democracy.

“I put my life on the line in Iraq– where I flew missions to protect free and fair elections. I care all the more that free and fair elections take place in Michigan– where I was born and raised.

“While Senator Peters is currently ahead, I have deep concerns that millions of Michiganders may have been disenfranchised by a dishonest few who cheat.

“When this process is complete, I will of course accept the results and the will of the people, but at this time there is enough credible evidence to warrant an investigation to ensure that elections were conducted in a transparent, legal and fair manner.

“Those who object likely have something to hide.”

Last night I noted James was ahead of Peters by approximately 265k votes.

Seems like the Michigan Democratic machine came up with sufficient ballot numbers to erase James' lead, plus an additional 70k for a Peters win.

Sure. Sounds like credible numbers to me.

If you count legal votes, he won.  If you count illegal votes from Detroit, we all lost.
