Michigan Democratic Rep. Haley Stevens appeared with Republican Senate nominee Mike Rogers at a Detroit church on Sunday, and then endorsed him in a video posted to social media. Stevens lost the Democratic Senate primary to Abdul El-Sayed in August by a narrow margin. The two had clashed in the days before over an outside group’s ad about Israel, which Stevens called antisemitic; El-Sayed said he did not make the ad and disagrees with its contents. In the video, Stevens said, “I don’t belong in Abdul’s campaign.” The endorsement comes in the final days before Election Day.
