Democrat Haley Stevens, a sitting Michigan congresswoman, endorsed Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers on Sunday after Democratic nominee Abdul El-Sayed told her she was not welcome at a campaign unity event two days before polls open.
Stevens appeared alongside Rogers outside a church, telling reporters El-Sayed had made clear he did not want her involvement. She posted a video to X saying the Democratic nominee did not represent who Michiganders are. Rogers called the endorsement an act of courage.
El-Sayed's campaign said he was not focused on Stevens. An aide to El-Sayed said she had no role in a campaign advertisement linking US support for Israel to consumer prices, which Stevens had demanded he denounce publicly.
The Michigan Senate seat, held by a retiring Democrat, has not been won by a Republican since 1994. Analysts rate it among the tightest contests deciding Senate control in Tuesday's midterms.
