DETROIT — In response to Sean McCann’s victory in the race to represent Michigan’s 4th Congressional District, Michigan Democratic Party Chair Curtis Hertel released the following statement:

“State Senator McCann ran a vigorous and impressive campaign to defeat a longtime Republican incumbent — that speaks to his dedication to delivering for working people. Sean’s lifetime of service is simply continuing with a new, well-deserved title: Congressman. In Washington, Sean will continue to fight for working people and take on Republicans. I served with state Senator McCann, and I know Michiganders in the southwest corner of our state are in good hands.”
