Michigan's 18th Senate district is one of 38 districts in the Michigan Senate. The 18th district was created by the 1850 Michigan Constitution, as the 1835 constitution only permitted a maximum of eight senate districts.[2][3] It has been represented by Republican Thomas Albert since 2023, succeeding Democrat Jeff Irwin.[4][5]
Geography
[edit]District 18 encompasses all of Barry County, as well as parts of Allegan, Calhoun, Ionia, Kalamazoo, and Kent counties.[6]
2011 Apportionment Plan
[edit]District 18, as dictated by the 2011 Apportionment Plan, was based in the city of Ann Arbor – home to the University of Michigan – also covering the nearby Washtenaw County communities of Ypsilanti, Saline, Pittsfield Township, Ypsilanti Township, and Superior Township.[7]
The district was largely located within Michigan's 12th congressional district, with a small portion extending into the 7th district. It overlapped with the 52nd, 53rd, 54th, and 55th districts of the Michigan House of Representatives.[8]
