Michigan Democrats rallied at a Detroit high school after their primary season. Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed thanked Rep. Haley Stevens, his defeated primary opponent, and the article reported that he won about 49% of the vote to Stevens’ 47%, citing results compiled by The Detroit News.

Other speakers included gubernatorial candidate Jocelyn Benson, former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and Lt. Gov. Garlin Gilchrist, who is running for secretary of state and criticized his Republican opponent.
