The Great Lakes and Line 5
In short
El-Sayed's campaign backs shutting down Line 5 and making it safer until then; no position from Rogers was found. Christensen's campaign opposes the Line 5 tunnel and wants the line removed; no position from Long was found. Marsh's campaign would stop Line 5, the tunnel and corporations taking Michigan's freshwater; no position from Kristy was found.
Campaign positions
What each campaign says.
Mike Rogers
No position on the Great Lakes or Line 5 was found on his campaign site: the home page, his biography, the housing and health plans, and all 202 news items back to March 2025.
Lydia Christensen
She opposes the proposed Great Lakes Tunnel, which she says would keep Line 5 operating, and calls for Line 5 to be decommissioned and safely removed.
Tim Long
No campaign website, platform or public statement by him was found. His FEC committee registration lists no website, the U.S. Taxpayers Party of Michigan's candidates page lists no candidates, and a web search for his name with the party and the office returned only election listings.
Douglas P. Marsh
He says senators are needed to stop Line 5 and the Line 5 tunnel, and to stop corporations from taking Michigan's freshwater.
Walter P. Kristy
No campaign website, platform or public statement by him was found. The FEC records no campaign committee for him, the Natural Law Party of Michigan's site refused an automated reader and was not read, and a web search for his name with the party and the office returned only election listings and a poll.
