MODERATORS
Blue collar workers in Michigan are not the Blue Wall they once were (just over half ~56% voted for Biden over Trump in 2020, better than what Hillary got at ~53% - but in the good old days, that would have been close to 100%) And they're <15% of those who are employed in the state now compared to >25% as recently as 1989.
