Eric Doster, who has served as general counsel to the Michigan Republican Party since 1992, is on next week's primary ballot for a seat on the Court of Appeals. Michigan Liberal notes that Doster has business backing.

GOVERNING Politics is the place for news and analysis on campaigns and elections. If there's a ballot measure in California, a legislative election in Alabama, a mayoral election in Anchorage or a governor's race in Rhode Island, GOVERNING Politics probably is writing about it. We love everything about state and local politics, from polls and campaign ads to policy debates and demographic trends.
