What to know about Michigan’s primary election

Trump and Biden are likely to win on Tuesday, despite a complicated process and the Israel-Gaza war

Michigan moved up its primary contest this year, creating a domino effect for the state's Republican party that led to a primary and a caucus being held in yet another confusing moment for the US primary election.

The midwestern state's primary will be held on 27 February for Republicans and Democrats, who voted to move up the date to meet requests from national Democrats and President Joe Biden to diversify the states with earlier primaries.
