The latest battle between the Democratic Party\u2019s insurgent left flank and moderate incumbents in Congress may also be the strangest of the cycle. In Michigan\u2019s 13th Congressional District, progressive state lawmaker Donavan McKinney is challenging Rep. Shri Thanedar, a two-term congressman and former pharma executive. When he first ran for office eight years ago in a gubernatorial primary that featured Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and Senate-hopeful Abdul El-Sayed, Thanedar couldn\u2019t decide whether to run as a Republican or an independent, before deciding on presenting as a \u201cfiscally savvy Bernie\u201d progressive. He burned through $10 million of his own cash, only to get dogged by allegations that he abandoned hundreds of beagles and monkeys at a drug-testing lab he once owned, a scandal that has been resurrected this year.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Thanedar lost that election badly, but the experience wasn\u2019t all for naught. He had won in Detroit, where he later moved and now represents in Congress. In the interim, he\u2019s been sued for business fraud (he settled), joined and left the Democratic Socialists of America, courted pro-Israel and pro-crypto groups, infuriated Democratic leadership by spearheading \u201crogue\u201d impeachment proceedings against Trump, churned through congressional staff, and funneled millions of dollars of campaign cash into crypto and other investments.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Much of the race has been clouded by the national electoral environment after the Supreme Court\u2019s Callais<\/em> decision, which may erase more than a dozen majority-minority congressional districts, rolling back Black representation in the House. Michigan\u2019s predominantly Black 13th Congressional district has not been represented by a Black congressmember since 2019.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Thanedar is still endorsed in this race by the top three members of the House Democratic leadership, but this week, McKinney, a progressive member of the Michigan House of Representatives and Parliamentarian for the body\u2019s Black Caucus, secured the breakaway support of a key member of the Democratic establishment. Rep. Steven Horsford (D-NV), the immediate past chair of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) and a former vice chair of the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee, endorsed McKinney on Monday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

CBC leaders have invariably stood with incumbents and deferred to seniority because it\u2019s historically been a way to retain influence within the Democratic caucus. But how to handle Thanedar, a wild card keeping the CBC from additional representation, has been wrenching and opened the group up to criticism. In a nearby district in Lansing, the CBC is spending close to $1 million in a primary without a Black candidate. Yet neither the CBC nor its current leader, Rep. Yvette Clarke (D-NY), has endorsed in this race, which is an opportunity to add a member representing a heavily Black district. The CBC did not respond to a request for comment.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As of the most recent polling,<\/strong> the candidates are neck-and-neck in the run-up to the August 4th primary, amid a profusion of spending from interest groups and by Thanedar himself. The crypto-backed super PAC Protect Progress has spent roughly $1.1 million to boost Thanedar, who has consistently voted for federal legislation the industry supports. The week immediately following the primary, Thanedar is slated to speak as a special guest at a crypto industry retreat on Martha\u2019s Vineyard. Bundlers from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) have also donated more than $100,000 to his campaign. But the bulk of the fundraising has come from millions of dollars Thanedar has personally loaned to his campaign\u2013\u2013his committee, per its most recent filings, owes more than $13 million, accrued over the last three cycles\u2013\u2013or reaped in profit from investments of campaign cash, including investments in crypto. One from last year showed Thanedar\u2019s campaign made close to $2 million in investment income in a three-month period. Another the campaign lost as much investing later in the year in the same amount of time.\u00a0<\/p>\n

McKinney has pulled in hundreds of thousands of dollars in support from Justice Democrats, the progressive funders who have been backing left-wing challengers in Democratic primaries throughout the country and tapped McKinney as their first recruit this cycle. McKinney also has broad backing that includes both the Working Families Party and the Democratic Socialists of America, organizations that have recently been jockeying for influence in the Democratic Party, in addition to national and local unions like National Nurses United and the Michigan AFL-CIO.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In his effort to unseat a sitting member of Congress, McKinney has run in many ways like an incumbent. He\u2019s been endorsed by the state\u2019s lieutenant governor, the local county executive, former Michigan congressmembers Andy Levin and Brenda Lawrence, prospective colleague and sitting Michigan congressmember Rashida Tlaib and five other members of Congress, as well as half of the state senate\u2019s Democratic delegation, nearly half of Democratic state reps, and a slew of local lawmakers and mayors. \u201cDonavan has been able to pull together a coalition of legislators who would normally be in the corner of the incumbent because Shri has been so absent and alienated himself from so many elected officials in Detroit,\u201d Ravi Mangla, press secretary for the Working Families Party, told the Prospect<\/em>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

McKinney leaned into that message in his initial television ad in the district. \u201cPeople like Shri Thanedar are the problem,\u201d McKinney says in the ad. \u201cHe\u2019s not like us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Thanedar and his campaign did not respond to multiple requests for comment.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a different picture from six years ago, when these two candidates first faced off in a Democratic primary. Back in 2020, Thanedar and McKinney duked it out in a crowded race for Michigan\u2019s third state house district, where the electorate at the time (before a more recent redistricting) 90 percent African American. Thanedar, the only non-Black major candidate in the race, eked out a victory with 35 percent of the vote after loaning himself more than $400,000. McKinney came in a distant second with about 20 percent of the vote. Al Williams, who placed fourth in the race, remembers the primary well. \u201cSome people say he\u2019s got more money than God,\u201d he told the Prospect<\/em> about Thanedar. \u201cRunning against him, he was willing to spend whatever he had to get there to get legislative experience. That\u2019s what he wanted.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

After one term in the state house, Thanedar turned around in 2022 and self-financed a run for Michigan\u2019s 13th Congressional District, which he again won in a crowded field with far less than a majority, this time under 30 percent of the vote. \u201cShri Thanedar beat me by 4,000 votes because there were seven other Black candidates in the race,\u201d said Adam Hollier, a former state senator who ran in the primary to represent the plurality Black district.<\/p>\n

Undeterred by Thanedar\u2019s willingness to spend outlandish sums of his own fortune to win, Hollier had entered the primary with an enormous war chest thanks to the substantial backing of pro-Israel super PACs. Those groups had jumped into the race, incensed by Thanedar\u2019s sponsorship of a 2021 state house resolution calling for a cessation of military aid to Israel, a position he\u2019s since recanted. The following cycle, Thanedar, having consolidated the support of pro-Israel groups, won re-election more handily against Detroit city councilmember Mary Waters, who\u2019s now running a write-in campaign with limited finances after missing the signature threshold to make it onto the ballot back in May. That raised some concern among Thanedar\u2019s opponents that the incumbent could leg out another split-vote win, though Waters doesn\u2019t see it that way. \u201cThere are plenty of votes for each candidate,\u201d she told the Prospect<\/em>. \u201cPeople just need to choose the one that they want to support.\u201d<\/p>\n

Horace Sheffield III, pastor of New Destiny Christian Fellowship in Detroit and long-time powerbroker in the city, who was one of Thanedar\u2019s early backers in the district, is now among those worried about a split-vote outcome. He recently endorsed McKinney, but years ago he had supported Thanedar\u2019s $10 million run for governor, and after that race pushed him to vie for a local seat in Detroit. \u201cI identified for him that particular state district, [given] how well he had done,\u201d he told the Prospect<\/em>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sheffield has had misgivings since then. \u201cThe city of Detroit has a significant African American population. We enjoyed for 50 years the representation of two African Americans \u2026 Charles Diggs, and of course John Conyers, and now we\u2019re down to none at all,\u201d Sheffield said. \u201cDonavan is aware of what\u2019s going on in our community \u2026 and we don\u2019t hear from the congressman at all.\u201d Sheffield appeared with McKinney and a host of faith leaders and local officials at a church on Tuesday morning.<\/p>\n

In his pitch to voters,<\/strong> McKinney has focused on his record in the state house, where he\u2019s served since 2022, after stints as an organizer with the Service Employees International Union, representing Michigan nursing home and home health care workers, and on Gov. Whitmer\u2019s Environmental Justice Council. As a member of the state house appropriations committee, he\u2019s shepherded millions of state and federal funds to replace lead pipes in the Detroit area, finance local violence intervention programs, and build new public school facilities. He\u2019s introduced legislation that would ban state-regulated utilities, which have held significant sway in Michigan politics and taken flak for dramatically hiking rates in recent years, contributing to campaigns, and lobbying elected officials. A version of that restriction will be on the statewide ballot this year.<\/p>\n

On the campaign trail, McKinney has also stressed his upbringing in the community and his ability to understand its struggles, which include deep poverty, regular power outages, lead exposure, asthma, and a sense of abandonment by federal policymakers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Should he make it to Congress, McKinney pledged to sign on to a slate of nationally significant bills backed by the party\u2019s progressive wing, including the Block the Bombs Act, which would limit the sale of American-made offensive weapons to Israel, the EACH Act, which would allow federal health care plans to cover abortions, a Green New Deal, and Medicare for All.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Growing up, McKinney moved with his family 13 times, chased around the city by eviction notices. He developed asthma at a young age. He remembers attending meetings of the autoworkers union with his grandfather, before the local industry was hollowed out, and \u201cjust got a knack for it,\u201d sending him into community organizing and a life in the labor movement. That bottom-up approach to politics is something he hopes the Democratic Party more broadly will heed beyond lip-service.\u00a0<\/p>\n

About a year before he was sworn in as a state lawmaker, McKinney found himself reckoning with the reality of living in Detroit in a way that Thanedar, who moved from Ann Arbor to a mansion in one of the wealthiest parts of the city, could not imagine.\u00a0<\/p>\n

McKinney\u2019s first son had just been born, and when the family returned home, they found the neighborhood in the midst of an extended power outage, which have been chronic events in recent years. Last year, Michigan utility companies ranked dead last in a nationwide survey of power restoration times after blackouts. \u201cWe had to spend his first five days on the planet in a hotel room,\u201d McKinney said. \u201cI was able to fund it because I had a good job [\u2026] But you\u2019ve got to think about the communities we represent. Right now as a state rep, I represent the poorest house district in Michigan.\u201d The experience led him to draw up a policy intervention aiming at many problems at once, which he introduced earlier this year: a plan for community solar panel investments to backstop the power grid and bring energy costs down, while shifting to fossil-free alternatives.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re at this stage and point in time where we still think we\u2019re the party of the people, and so if we\u2019re going to continue to claim to be the party of the people, well, we have to act like it,\u201d McKinney told the Prospect<\/em>. His constituents have expressed as much to him when they come to his district office looking for help. \u201cEvery few days, I\u2019ve got seniors who have to make those tough decisions, \u2018Should I use my little money I get every month to pay my rent or to pay for food so I can get through the day, or to pay for life-saving medicine so I can live,\u2019\u201d he said. \u201cAnd I\u2019ve got younger people in our communities that are working two, three jobs, not even making ends meet, let alone scraping by just to survive because the cost of living is skyrocketing because we\u2019ve got an administration that wants to start war.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cHalf the battle is showing up,\u201d McKinney said. \u201cThe other half is trying to figure out ways to bring home resources to improve the quality of life of the people we represent.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
