With just about one week left until election day, there are four congressional districts in Michigan that we're watching closely. Today, you’ll hear about two of them: the 8th and 11th Districts. Both have Democratic representatives—Haley Stevens in the 11th and Elissa Slotkin in the 8th—who flipped their seats from GOP control in 2018. Now, Republicans want those districts back. We talked to Detroit News reporter Beth LeBlanc and Michigan Radio's Tyler Scott to find out how election season is playing out in these highly competitive districts.  You can find out more about Stateside and listen to our full shows here.
