What the coverage shows
All the coverage centers on Haley Stevens’s surprise endorsement of Republican Mike Rogers instead of Abdul El-Sayed, and most outlets frame it as a late blow or escalation in Michigan’s Senate race. Several, including AP, NBC, Politico and The Guardian, foreground the intraparty feud and fallout, while ABC and CNN focus more on Stevens speaking about or defending the switch. The Hill’s first item is the outlier, since it covers El-Sayed at a rally and does not mention the endorsement.
