Kamala Harris Is to Campaign in Michigan with Abdul El-Sayed
Harris and El-Sayed will appear together for the first time as Democrats try to flip a Senate seat and unify voters.
Former Vice President Kamala Harris plans to visit Michigan next week to campaign with Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed, aiming to unify voters in the battleground state.
Democrats must flip four GOP-held seats to secure a Senate majority, making the seat currently held by Democrat Gary Peters a critical must-win for the party's chamber control.
On Tuesday, Harris and El-Sayed will attend a roundtable focused on Black maternal health, marking their first public appearance together since she endorsed the progressive Democrat after his primary victory.
Republican Mike Rogers, El-Sayed's November opponent, has attacked him as a "radical" liberal, complicating Democrats' efforts to retain Michigan in their path to a Senate majority.
Harris, who lost the 2024 presidential race to Trump and is viewed as a possible 2028 candidate, seeks to assist down-ballot Democrats to "stand up to Donald Trump's corruption.
