Michigan Libertarians usually nominate their candidate for governor at a party convention. But this year, voters will choose the nominee. The Libertarian Party won enough votes in the 2016 elections to qualify as a major party, setting up its first-ever primary election for governor.

Two candidates will be on the ballot Tuesday. Pat Batcheller tells us more about them.
