Story summary

Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic nominee for Michigan’s U.S. Senate race, disinvited his primary rival Haley Stevens from campaign events just days before the midterm elections, citing distractions and divisions within the party. This public feud between El-Sayed and Stevens, who endorsed him after losing the primary, escalated when Stevens appeared alongside Republican candidate Mike Rogers at a Detroit church on Sunday, an unusual move in a closely contested race. National and state Democratic leaders have condemned Stevens for this switch, calling it a "despicable betrayal," while she cites concerns over El-Sayed’s positions on Israel as the reason for her decision. The rift highlights deep divisions within the Michigan Democratic party ahead of what could be a pivotal election in determining control of the U.S. Senate.
