Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is scheduled to campaign in Michigan with Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, including at stops on his bus tour and a rally in Detroit. The visit comes as El-Sayed faces a closely contested race against Mike Rogers.
Ocasio-Cortez is scheduled to join El-Sayed’s Michigan bus tour next Thursday, with stops in Escanaba, Iron Mountain and Marquette, and to host separate political events the following day, including a Detroit rally for El-Sayed. She said she was excited to support his campaign and cited their shared goals on costs, health care and corporate money. El-Sayed called her a “critical partner” and said he looked forward to campaigning with her.
The article says El-Sayed has narrowly pulled ahead of Republican opponent Mike Rogers in recent polling, while the Cook Political Report rates the race a toss-up. It also reports that Rogers and El-Sayed debated the cost of living, President Trump’s approval ratings, federal immigration crackdowns and the Iran war.
