据决策台总部(DDHQ)预测,民主党籍检察官克里斯蒂娜·海恩斯在密歇根州第10国会选区击败共和党籍陆军老兵迈克·布沙尔,翻转了一个由共和党把持的底特律郊区席位。
Democratic prosecutor Christina Hines was projected to defeat Republican Army veteran Mike Bouchard in Michigan’s 10th Congressional District, according to Decision Desk HQ (DDHQ), flipping a GOP-held seat in the suburbs of Detroit.
海恩斯将接替众议员约翰·詹姆斯(共和党-密歇根州),后者在特朗普总统背书下选择竞选州长,而非寻求第三个任期。该选区涵盖马科姆县南部大部分地区和奥克兰县部分地区。这个空缺席位是民主党的重点攻坚目标。
Hines will succeed Rep. John James (R-Mich.), who ran for governor this year with President Trump’s endorsement instead of seeking a third term. The district covers much of southern Macomb County and part of Oakland County. The open seat was a top target for Democrats.
该选区在特朗普三次参选中均支持他:2016年领先5个百分点,2020年领先1个百分点,2024年领先近7个百分点。但该选区在2022年也以两位数优势支持州长格雷琴·惠特默(民主党)和州务卿乔斯林·本森(民主党)——当时詹姆斯以微弱优势赢得首个任期。本森今年也在选票上,同样竞选州长。
The district voted for Trump three times over his opponents: by 5 points in 2016, by 1 point in 2020 and by nearly 7 points in 2024. But it also backed Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) and Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson (D) by double digits in 2022 — when James narrowly won his first term. Benson was on the ballot again this year, also running for governor.
詹姆斯的离任消除了共和党的现任者优势,给了民主党机会。8月,库克政治报告将该竞争从“倾向共和党”调整为“势均力敌”。截至周一,DDHQ将该竞争评为“倾向民主党”,给海恩斯66%的获胜几率。
James’s departure gave Democrats an opening by removing Republicans’ incumbency advantage. In August, Cook Political Report moved the race from “lean Republican” to toss-up. As of Monday, DDHQ rated the race as “lean Democrat,” giving Hines a 66 percent chance of winning.
海恩斯在今年竞争激烈的民主党初选中以17个百分点优势获胜,尽管她在筹款上落后于两名对手。库克政治报告部分归因于她在马科姆县的强力支持。
Hines won a competitive Democratic primary this year by 17 points despite being outraised by two opponents. Cook Political Report attributes her success, in part, to her strong support in Macomb County.
作为韦恩县和瓦什特诺县的前检察官,海恩斯将竞选重点放在降低成本、扩大平价医疗保健获取和打击腐败上,包括禁止国会议员炒股。她还试图将对手与背书布沙尔的特朗普绑定。
A former prosecutor in Wayne and Washtenaw counties, Hines focused her campaign on lowering costs, expanding access to affordable healthcare and fighting corruption, including by banning members of Congress from trading stocks. She also sought to tie her opponent to Trump, who endorsed Bouchard.
这位共和党候选人是前陆军伞兵,是长期担任奥克兰县治安官的迈克尔·布沙尔之子,后者在2024年以超过20个百分点优势连任。该共和党候选人将竞选重点放在支持国内制造业和选区汽车就业、保卫南部边境以及应对通胀上。
The GOP hopeful, a former Army paratrooper, is the son of longtime Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard, who won reelection in 2024 by more than 20 points. The Republican focused his campaign on supporting domestic manufacturing and auto jobs in the district, securing the southern border and addressing inflation.
