If the election skeptic wins the primary, Guy said she plans to run as a write-in candidate in the general election. Earlier this year, a county commissioner in a pivotal political county in another presidential battleground state, Nevada, survived a primary challenge from election conspiracists. In Michigan, Antrim County is not the only place with election conspiracy theorists on the GOP primary ballot. The county sheriff in southwestern Michigan who has continued to investigate false claims of widespread election fraud from the 2020 election is running for reelection against multiple Republican opponents. Four other candidates are running in the Republican primary, including one Guy has endorsed.
