Michigan has a Democratic triplex and a divided trifecta. The Democratic Party controls the offices of governor, secretary of state, and attorney general. The Democratic Party controls the upper chamber, while the Republican Party controls the lower chamber of the state legislature. Both Senators are Democratic. US House Representation is 7 Rs, 6Ds. I mean, all in, hardly a precarious state for Democrats. Whitmer doesn't exactly have to govern hard to the center.

However, Michigan went Trump in 2016 and 2024. If she has to get things done for her constituents and its done on the down low, I guess she'll do it.

I don't know how she has the stomach to work with those Nazis though.
