As Thanedar’s campaign gained public traction in early 2018, reporters at The Intercept and HuffPost began investigating Thanedar’s history. Thanedar had not held elective office before running for Governor of Michigan in 2017, so he did not have an official record as a Democrat. Campaign finance records show that Thanedar made 18 donations to Democratic campaigns and 1 donation to a Republican campaign prior to running for office.

Thanedar denied the claims, stating that he was being criticized by these strategists because he did not hire their firms.
