Michigan Rep. Andy Levin lost his primary bid for a third term Tuesday to fellow Democratic Rep. Haley Stevens in a battle of the sophomore lawmakers who represent different wings of the party.
Stevens led the Democratic primary for the 11th District with 60 percent of the vote to Levin’s 40 percent when The Associated Press called the race at 10:46 p.m. Eastern time.
His loss will mark the first time in more than four decades that a Levin won’t represent Michigan. Levin succeeded his father, former Rep. Sander Levin, when he was first elected in 2018. His late uncle, former Sen. Carl Levin, was first elected in 1978 and served six terms in the Senate.
