ANN ARBOR – Michigan would face big changes if Joe Biden or Bernie Sanders became president, from overhauls of health insurance to Great Lakes cleanup efforts and plans for electric cars.
A once-crowded Democratic field has narrowed in recent days, giving way to what largely is a two-person race in Michigan’s primary Tuesday between Biden, the former vice president, and Sanders, the Vermont senator. (Tulsi Gabbard is still in the race but isn’t expected to be a factor.)
Sanders promises a “revolution” with plans to replace private health insurance with a single-payer system, fight climate change with a “Green New Deal” and provide free college, an ambitious agenda that will require a series of tax hikes.
