Former Vice President Kamala Harris plans to campaign in Michigan with Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed next week, including at a roundtable on Black maternal health. The visit is part of Democrats’ effort to unify voters in a closely contested Senate race.
Harris plans to appear publicly with El-Sayed for the first time at a roundtable focused on Black maternal health, according to campaign spokespeople. Harris’s spokesperson said she would return to Michigan to help turn out voters and argued that Democrats need to flip the Senate to lower prices and oppose Donald Trump’s corruption allegations.
El-Sayed faces Republican Mike Rogers in November for a seat held by Democrat Gary Peters. The article describes the Michigan race as important to control of the Senate and recalls divisions in the Democratic primary between El-Sayed and Rep. Haley Stevens, including over U.S. support for Israel. Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg has also urged Democrats to unify behind the party’s candidates.

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.
