Michigan Senate candidate Mallory McMorrow defended her past voting record and deleted social media posts during a Sunday appearance on CNN’s "Inside Politics." The scrutiny follows reports that McMorrow voted in California after claiming to have relocated to Michigan, as well as the deletion of roughly 6,000 tweets. McMorrow, a Democratic state senator, emphasized that "moving takes time" and cited her transitional living situation between 2014 and 2016. She also addressed criticism from primary opponent Rep. Haley Stevens, who argued the deleted posts and past comments could hurt Democrats in the general election. Stevens described McMorrow’s actions as "tacky" and "out of touch" with Michigan values. McMorrow defended her social media history, calling her tweets "normal things like a normal person" and rejecting claims of disconnection from voters. The controversy stems from a New York Post report detailing McMorrow’s deleted posts, including comments about rural America and manufacturing jobs. McMorrow also faced scrutiny for a 2016 tweet criticizing "Middle America," which she defended as part of a broader discussion about national unity. She rose to national prominence in 2022 after a viral speech attacking Republican positions on social issues.
