Crypto-backed Michigan House incumbent loses primary despite $2M PAC support

A Midwest Democratic primary that raised accusations of payback from the cryptocurrency industry ended with the unseating of two-term incumbent Shri Thanedar.

Michigan State Representative Donavan McKinney won a Democratic primary against incumbent House Representative Shri Thanedar in a race that raised accusations of payback by the cryptocurrency industry.

McKinney won the primary for Michigan’s 13th Congressional District with 51.9% of the vote against Thanedar’s 48.1% as of Wednesday, the New York Times reported. The primary saw a cryptocurrency-backed political action committee (PAC) spending more than $2 million on media in an attempt to re-elect Thanedar, who has voted in favor of many bills favoring the industry while in Congress.&
