Democratic Rep. Haley Stevens endorses Republican Mike Rogers for Michigan Senate
It's a blow for Democratic nominee Abdul El-Sayed in the final days of his campaign, and an escalation of their feud.
What the coverage shows
All three outlets center on Haley Stevens’ appearance with Mike Rogers at a Detroit church, but The Hill and Axios explicitly frame it as an endorsement, while Fox News leads with the church appearance and the invitation dispute. Axios alone mentions her praising Rogers’ support for Black-owned businesses and notes the timing as two days before he faces the Democratic nominee she had previously endorsed. The Hill is the only one to spell out that Stevens lost to Abdul El-Sayed in the Democratic primary.
