Abdul El-Sayed makes final campaign push in Detroit ahead of Election Day
- On Monday night, Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed held his final campaign rally at Detroit's Majestic Theatre, rallying supporters just hours before Election Day.
- The campaign's final chapter turned chaotic after Congresswoman Haley Stevens withdrew her endorsement and backed Republican nominee Mike Rogers; despite the political spat, El-Sayed's campaign raised more than $2.4 million on Sunday.
- Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren joined Michigan Democratic leaders to support El-Sayed, who built his platform on a pledge to make healthcare free for all Americans and vowed to remove "money out of politics."
- With over $400 million spent on the contest, the outcome of this Michigan Senate race will likely determine which party controls Congress as voters choose between El-Sayed and Rogers to succeed retiring Sen. Gary Peters.
- Supporters expressed hope for systemic change, with El-Sayed telling the crowd, "I bet on the goodness of Michigan," as the candidate aims to become the first Democratic doctor in the Senate since 1969.
