13 OUTLETSOutlets agree Harris plans to campaign in Michigan with Abdul El-Sayed, a Senate nominee, including at a roundtable on Black maternal health. Center outlets mostly treat the visit as a straightforward campaign appearance tied to Black maternal health and Democratic efforts to unify voters and win Senate control, while some also note Republican criticism. Right-leaning outlets give Republican Mike Rogers’s criticism and the close contest more prominence, with Breitbart also opening by portraying Harris through her failed presidential bid.
