Story summary

Kamala Harris, the former Vice President, plans to campaign with Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic nominee for Senate in Michigan, on Tuesday. This visit aims to unify voters ahead of key midterm elections that will help determine control of the Senate. The pair will discuss Black maternal health and voter registration at a roundtable event. Harris's endorsement and support are crucial as El-Sayed faces Republican candidate Mike Rogers in a competitive race. This campaign is significant because Michigan was one of seven battleground states Harris lost to Donald Trump two years ago, and it now plays a pivotal role in upcoming presidential primaries.
