Democrat Abdul El-Sayed’s former opponent in the Michigan Senate primary, Haley Stevens, is appearing with Republican candidate Mike Rogers at a Detroit church after intraparty tensions have boiled over days before the election.

The appearance comes after the congresswoman was uninvited to a joint event Sunday with El-Sayed, who defeated her by a slim margin in the August primary.

Stevens has been critical of El-Sayed’s comments surrounding Israel. Her fiance said last week he was voting for Rogers, claiming El-Sayed had not done enough to address concerns of the Jewish community.

    Remember the day before the NYC mayoral election when Trump endorsed Andrew Como who was running as a spoiler candidate against Mamdani? I see similaries.

    Good job Michigan for not letting Haley Stevens win the primary. We cannot afford another John Fetterman in the Senate.
