At county conventions all over Michigan on Monday, local Republican party members met to lay groundwork for nominating candidates, and to settle some scores between hardcore supporters of former President Donald Trump and their opponents. This is obviously a big midterm election year for a lot of statewide races and congressional races. Today, we talk with two reporters who covered different county party conventions last night. 

GUESTS:

Clara Hendrickson, Report for American fellow at the Detroit Free Press 

Craig Mauger, Detroit News politics reporter
