Speaking with reporters after the flip, McCann called it "an exciting change election" and named his priorities: bring costs down, end the war in Iran, end the "chaotic tariff policy" and expand health care. He pointed to his work in the Michigan legislature with Governor Whitmer and promised to stop "the corruption that we've seen in Washington, DC."

Yeah, so an exciting change election, and that's what we've talked about this whole over a year campaign is the need to bring people's costs down, try to bring this war in Iran to an end, and the chaotic tariff policy, and expand health care for people. And that's driven by the work I had done in the Michigan legislature, in the House, in the Senate, because we've been working here in Michigan in partnership with Governor Whitmer and the legislature to do exactly those things, to put money into people's pockets, expand health care, make life easier, make the American dream more accessible to everyone, and also stop the corruption that we've seen in Washington, DC that really, I think, has struck people as patently unfair, that people will get ahead and do well in Washington, DC.
