WASHINGTON — Voters in a central Michigan district will decide the 35th state Senate seat on Tuesday, determining whether Democrats keep their 19-18 majority or produce a 19-19 split. Democrat Chedrick Greene, Republican Jason Tunney and Libertarian Ali Sledz are on the ballot; Greene won the Feb. 3 Democratic primary with 60% of the vote. Michigan's narrow Senate arithmetic means the outcome affects the state's legislative agenda through January; Lt. Gov. Garlin Gilchrist II may break ties if a deadlock occurs. The district includes parts of Saginaw, Bay City and Midland, and political observers are watching the race this week for signals about voter sentiment heading into the November midterms.

Who Impacted

共和党获胜将使参议院以19-19平局,使共和党人拥有阻挠投票和阻止需要20票才能通过的法案的筹码,从而限制多数党在州长任期最后几个月的议程。
