Tudor Dixon wins the GOP nomination for governor in Michigan, NBC News Democratic  projects

Dixon, who secured Trump’s endorsement last week, will face Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in an election that will have major implications for the next presidential race.

Tudor Dixon has won Michigan’s Republican nomination for governor, NBC News projects, emerging from one of the year’s most turbulent primaries in a state where the general election will have major implications for the next presidential race.

The former conservative media personality, who secured an endorsement last week from former President Donald Trump, will face Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, who was renominated without opposition Tuesday.

Early results placed Dixon ahead of four rivals, including chiropractor Garrett Soldano; Kevin Rinke, a former Detroit-area car dealer who loaned $10 million to his campaign; and Ryan Kelley, a real estate broker and right-wing activist who was briefly a front-runner after his arrest on misdemeanor charges of being involved in the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

Tudor Dixon has won Michigan’s Republican nomination for governor, NBC News projects, emerging from one of the year’s most turbulent primaries in a state where the general election will have major implications for the next presidential race.

The former conservative media personality, who secured an endorsement last week from former President Donald Trump, will face Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, who was renominated without opposition Tuesday.

Early results placed Dixon ahead of four rivals, including chiropractor Garrett Soldano; Kevin Rinke, a former Detroit-area car dealer who loaned $10 million to his campaign; and Ryan Kelley, a real estate broker and right-wing activist who was briefly a front-runner after his arrest on misdemeanor charges of being involved in the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

The GOP infighting and nastiness could fester into the fall. Soldano, in an interview Sunday with NBC News after a campaign event in Warren, said he would support Dixon if she won the primary but would do little to activate his fervent supporters for anyone other than himself.

“It’s definitely fractured right now,” Soldano said of the party.

Despite efforts to frame her as an insufficiently conservative instrument of the establishment, Dixon projects a hard-line stance against abortion that Democrats have seized on to paint her as an extremist. (Dixon favors exceptions only when the mother’s life is at risk.) She favors phasing out the state’s personal income tax and talks frequently about “parents’ rights” in education — a front of the culture wars embraced by GOP candidates nationwide amid battles over the propriety of teaching students about racism and sexual orientation. She also has attacked the use of gender-neutral language as part of a “war on women.”

Dixon, Trump told listeners of a brief telephone “rally” he hosted for her Monday night, has “been on the front lines of the battle against left-wing indoctrination of our children.”

In a statement, Lavora Barnes, the chair of the Michigan Democratic Party, vowed to “continue to hold Dixon accountable for her disastrous plans and baseless conspiracy theories.”

Few would have predicted Dixon’s rise. Before getting into conservative media she had worked as an actor on several low-budget films and for her family’s steel company.

Whitmer, a rising national star and frequent object of Trump’s ire, figured to draw a marquee opponent. Prospects with far more familiar names, including two-time Senate candidate John James and Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel, were floated as possibilities but stayed out of the race. The GOP establishment, seeing no breakout star among Dixon and the other declared candidates, responded with enthusiasm when James Craig retired as Detroit’s police chief to launch a run last year.

Dixon had a few things going for her, though. She had hosted programs on Real America’s Voice, the network that also carries former Trump-adviser Steve Bannon’s right-wing talk show, and made friends within the former president’s orbit. But it wasn’t until other campaigns imploded that her fortunes began to improve. Craig and another top candidate, self-funding businessman Perry Johnson, were disqualified for submitting allegedly fraudulent petition signatures.

Around that time, the DeVoses made known their preference for Dixon. Eventually, the ads placed by the super PAC they sponsored soon began to take root, springing Dixon into the lead in polls.

“I am tough, my friends,” Dixon said as she wrapped her victory speech Tuesday night. And I am just getting going.”
