Voters in Dickinson County will see some new names on Tuesday’s primary ballot in Michigan House races.

State Rep. Beau LaFave, R-Iron Mountain, has represented the 108th District since 2017, but is being forced out by term limits. Redistricting, meanwhile, has changed the legislative map for Dickinson County.

The western end of the county is in the 110th District, while the eastern two-thirds is part of the 109th District.

In the 110th District, state Rep. Greg Markkanen, R-Hancock, is unopposed in the Republican primary, seeking election to a third two-year term. The lone Democratic challenger is Casey VerBerkmoes of Hubbell.

In Dickinson County, the 110th District includes the cities of Iron Mountain and Kingsford, along with Breitung and Sagola townships. The district also covers Iron, Gogebic, Ontonagon, Houghton and Keweenaw counties.

The new 109th District aligns with Baraga, Marquette and Alger counties. In Dickinson County, it includes the city of Norway and Breen, Felch, Norway, Waucedah and West Branch townships.

Like LaFave, incumbent state Rep. Sara Cambensy, D-Marquette, is leaving office due to term limits.

The new 108th District will cover Menominee, Delta, Schoolcraft and Chippewa counties. The Republican candidates in Tuesday’s primary are Kurt Perron of Brimley, David Prestin of Cedar River and Casey Hoffman and Mark Simon, both of Menominee.

The lone Democratic candidate is Chris Lopez of Escanaba.

State Sen. Ed McBroom, R-Waucedah Township, will seek election to a second four-year term, facing two Republican opponents in the U.P.’s 38th District. His challengers in Tuesday’s GOP primary are Matthew Furyk of Marquette and Kayla Wikstrom of Perkins.

The only Democrat running for the Senate seat is John Braamse of Marquette.

In Michigan’s 1st Congressional District, incumbent U.S. Rep. Jack Bergman, R-Watersmeet, is unopposed in the Republican primary. Bergman’s Democratic challenger, Bob Lorinser of Marquette, is also unopposed.
