Rep. Dan Kildee (D-MI) will retire on Jan. 3 , handing the reins to someone without his last name for the first time in five decades .

The Michigan 8th District is among the two dozen pure toss-up districts in the country that will determine control of the House .

Former President Donald Trump visited a rural part of Saginaw on Thursday to turn out voters.

Kildee says he and his wife had agreed at the outset that he would serve for a decade or so in the House .

But he says he had been planning another run before he was diagnosed with cancer last November .

In March , his brother was killed by a family member; he says it was a "terrible tragedy, and still is".
