Michigan Dem Senate candidate Mallory McMorrow purges X account following The Post’s report on her social media history

Michigan Democrat Mallory McMorrow, a candidate for US Senate, deleted thousands of tweets, some of which defended “coastal elites” and were critical of “Middle America,” after The Post first reported on them last year. 

Morrow, 39, purged her X account of roughly 6,000 posts, including all her tweets posted prior to 2020, CNN’s Andrew Kaczynski reported Wednesday. 

The journalist noted the social media cleanse came after The Post’s April 2025 scoop on McMorrow’s tweet history. 

The deleted posts even included jabs at the purple state she is now running to represent.

“Aaaand it’s snowing. Screw you, Michigan. #NYCtoLA,” read a now-deleted April 2014 X post.

“There are days like these that make me miss California even more,” McMorrow groused on Jan. 5, 2017, the day before Donald Trump’s victory over Hillary Clinton was certified by Congress. 

She also removed a bizarre post where she mused about “Middle America” breaking away from the country weeks before Trump’s swearing-in as the 45th president.

“I had a dream that the US amicably broke off into The Ring (coasts+Can+Mex+parts Mich/Tex) and Middle America,” McMorrow wrote in the since-deleted tweet

McMorrow, a state senator who is running in the hotly contested Democratic primary to replace retiring US Sen. Gary Peters (D-Mich.), has positioned herself as a moderate in the race and is considered a rising star in the party. 

She expressed frustration last year that Democrats give off “elitist” and “academic” vibes, but her social media history includes posts suggesting Trump supporters are poorly educated and agreeing with users who voiced criticism of rural voters. 

“We’ve downplayed the importance of quality education for all, replaced it with fear and blaming and anger, and here we are,” McMorrow posted on Election Day 2016.
