SAUGATUCK, Mich. (AP) — Former Michigan Attorney General Mike Cox is launching a Republican bid for governor according to an announcement on social media yesterday. Cox served as Michigan's attorney general from 2003 to 2011. He ran unsuccessfully for governor in 2010, coming in third in the Republican primary. Cox joins a crowded field of Republicans looking to replace term-limited Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. Michigan Senate Republican Leader Aric Nesbitt and U.S. Rep. John James are also in the Republican primary. On the Democratic side, Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson and Lt. Gov. Garlin Gilchrist II are running. Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan is running as an independent. He was previously a Democrat.
