John, my name is Garlin Gilchrist. I’m a husband, dad to three beautiful kids, software engineer, lifelong Democrat, and the Lieutenant Governor of Michigan.
State Democrats Committee said I could reach out to you with an important message:
Today, I’m proud to announce my campaign for Michigan Governor.
I’m about to share why I’m running, but first I have to ask: It’s gonna take all of us stepping up to keep this seat blue in a battleground state that Trump won. Will you split a donation between me and State Democrats Committee to become a Founding Donor and help us jumpstart this campaign?
Chip in: Become a Founding Donor →
I’m a proud Michigander because throughout our history we’ve been innovators, builders, and problem-solvers. When we see something that’s broken – we fix it.
That’s exactly what I’ve been proud to do alongside Governor Whitmer for the past six years.
Together, we’ve delivered free pre-k for all, increased small business success, protected abortion access, brought more high-quality jobs to Michigan, reformed our justice system, and expanded broadband access.
But now, with Donald Trump and Elon Musk taking over Washington, our progress is at risk.
Trump’s agenda is the opposite of Michigan’s problem-solving spirit. He’s not fixing what’s broken – he’s making things worse.
He’s attacking workers’ rights, defunding public schools, and rolling back environmental protections – putting Michigan’s future on the line.
Governors are now the last line of defense against Trump’s MAGA trifecta, and I’m ready to take this fight head-on.
But here’s the reality: Elon Musk poured over $290 MILLION into electing Trump and MAGA allies, targeting battleground states like Michigan. You can bet he will do it again.
We don’t have their deep pockets, but we have something stronger – people power. That’s why we’re launching this campaign with a bold goal: raising $50,000 in week one to prove we’re ready to fight for a BLUE Michigan in 2026. Will you split a donation today to help hit our goal and build a winning campaign?
