Editor's Note: The original version of this article said that Trump had not made an endorsement in Missouri's U.S. Senate primary. The former president has since endorsed “ERIC” for Senate. Whether he was referring to Eric Greitens or Eric Schmitt, the two Republican frontrunners, is up for speculation.
These Six States Head to the Polls This Week

Michigan – Tuesday, August 2nd
Trump has arguably made the most endorsements in the Wolverine State, including a long list of candidates for State Representative.
Governor: Trump announced his endorsement in this race a few short days ago throwing his weight behind businesswoman and political commentator Tudor Dixon who's in a close race with automotive dealer Kevin Rinke. Ryan Kelley and Garrett Soldano — who both have received a large amount of support from Trump enthusiasts — are also in the race and aren't too far behind in the polls.
Congress: Trump has a long list of endorsed candidates for Congress in Michigan. It includes incumbent Representatives Bill Huizenga, John Moolenaar, and Lisa McClain.
He also endorsed John Gibbs, who is running against Rep. Peter Meijer. Meijer infuriated the former President when he voted for impeachment.
Trump also endorsed Steve Carra — a State Representative running to replace current Congressman Fred Upton who is retiring — and John James who ran unsuccessfully for US Senate in 2018.
State Legislature:
Senate: Mike Detmer & Jonathan Lindsey
House: Mick Bricker, Jackey Eubanks, Mike Hoadley, Matt Maddock, Angela Rigas, Kevin Rathbun, Jon Rocha, Rachelle Smit
**Note: Trump also endorsed Matt DePerno for Attorney General and Kristina Karamo for Secretary of State, but these candidates will be confirmed at a State Convention later this month.
Missouri – Tuesday, August 2nd
US Senate: While Trump has not made an endorsement in this race, he ruled out endorsing Congresswoman Vicki Hartzler when he told people they “can forget about Vicki Hartzler” on his social media platform. Notably, former Governor Eric Greitans has former Fox News personality Kimberly Guilfoyle — who is engaged to Donald Trump Jr. and serves a Trump advisor — on his campaign team.
