At a glance

Haley Stevens, who lost the Democratic primary to Abdul El-Sayed, has endorsed Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers just days before the vote.

What the briefing reports

Haley Stevens, a former congresswoman, has announced her endorsement of Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers, despite being a Democrat herself. This move comes after Stevens lost the Democratic primary to Abdul El-Sayed, who she had clashed with publicly over a campaign advert.

According to reports, many of Stevens' staff resigned following her endorsement of Rogers. The endorsement is seen as a significant development in the Michigan Senate race, which will be decided on Tuesday and could potentially impact which party controls Congress for the next two years.

Stevens' decision to endorse Rogers has been met with surprise, given their differing political affiliations, and it remains to be seen how this will affect the outcome of the election. The move has also highlighted the tensions between Stevens and El-Sayed, with El-Sayed having previously made it clear that Stevens was no longer welcome in his campaign.
