Episode Details

Michigan’s Senate race is heating up with a razor-thin lead for Republican Mike Rogers over three Democratic challengers, all within the margin of error—meaning it’s still anyone’s game with ten weeks to go. The stakes? Whoever wins could tip the Senate balance. Former Wayne County health director Abdul El-Sayed is surging in polls, raising concerns among Democrats about his progressive stance potentially hurting general election chances—though some say it’s tied to voter frustration over foreign policy. All four candidates hit the stage this week at the Mackinac Policy Conference to pitch their visions. Democrats are rallying around opposing Trump’s policies, while Rogers blames Democrats for rising costs and failing schools. Retiring Senator Gary Peters hopes the Democratic primary stays civil, with the winner set to face Rogers in November—a race that could reshape Senate power.
