With polls between the two suggesting a nip-and-tuck contest, both candidates aggressively went after each other in a last-minute effort to woo any Michiganders who have yet to make up their mind in one of the nation’s most watched gubernatorial contests.

Whitmer, seeking a second term, criticized Dixon as a divisive force who can't be trusted, warning the state would regress if her opponent won. "Are we going to go backwards or are we going to drive together toward the future," Whitmer said. “I say, let’s step on the accelerator." Whitmer accused her opponent of dividing Michiganders. “She stokes violence, spreads conspiracy theories, even attacks working women and teachers,” she said of Dixon in her closing statement.

Dixon, in her closing statement, criticized her opponent of “carelessness” and “hypocrisy” and told viewers, “You’ve all felt the pain of her failure and you deserve better." Dixon also called the governor an advocate for a "radical, progressive social agenda" who's responsible for the backsliding of Michigan public schools.
