Two Republicans are trying to keep a Central Michigan state senate seat red. Two Democrats are trying to turn the seat blue again. State Sen. Judy Emmons, and former state House representative for Montcalm County, is term-limited. During her senate tenure, Emmons served as chair of the Families, Seniors and Human Services Committee, and as vice-chair of Veterans, Military Affairs, and Homeland Security Committee and as the Elections and Government Reform Committee. She also was appointed to the Economic, Development and International Investment Committee as well as the Judiciary Committee.
