I’m from the Saginaw area. Saginaw County is funny. Because of the auto foundries and parts plants that were once here, the city and unionized workers were heavily Democrat. Long gone now many former auto workers are now Conservative. The city remains Liberal but the agricultural areas surrounding it has always leaned Conservative. That hardly matters any longer, unfortunately.
We probably passed by each other at some point. I’m from one of the small towns near Saginaw and I grew up on the agricultural side, but I knew plenty of the foundry dads.
I'm from mid-Michigan... the tri-cities area and still have family there. Agree... can't understand the Biden/Whitmer support and COVID BS.

I'm from Saginaw too! My dad worked at one of the GM foundries.
