DETROIT (AP) — Republican U.S. Rep. John James has successfully defended his seat in eastern Michigan, fending off a challenge from a Democrat he has faced before. Voters in Michigan’s 10th congressional district faced a rematch between the incumbent and Democrat Carl Marlinga, who lost by just 1,600 votes in 2022.

The race was one of four seats — two that were open — where the balance of the U.S. House of Representatives has been at stake.
