He released the following statement on Nov. 6:

“While this is not the outcome we had hoped for, I am incredibly grateful for the support and dedication of the people who stood by me throughout this campaign. This race was about more than just a seat in Congress—it was about standing up for our shared values. We ran to protect Social Security and Medicare, defend reproductive rights, and ensure that every voice in this district was heard. Though we didn’t win, the fight for these issues continues. I will always remain committed to advocating for the working families of Michigan’s 10th District. We may not have won the race, but our vision for a fairer, stronger future for all Michiganders remains as strong as ever.”

Carl Marlinga

Marlinga thanked his campaign and supporters. He said he plans to continue to stand up for the district in other ways.
