LANSING, Mich. — Gov. Gretchen Whitmer announced her plans for a re-election campaign over social media Monday afternoon.

I'm Gretchen Whitmer — a proud mom, lifelong Michigander, and hardworking governor. I'm running for re-election in a swing state where special interests are pouring millions to unseat me.
There's so much at stake in this race, but I'm ready to fight back.
