Haley Stevens and Abdul El-Sayed Debate in Michigan Senate Race

Haley Stevens and Abdul El-Sayed debated in Michigan as Democratic Senate candidates.

Left-leaning outlets frame El-Sayed as the progressive alternative to Stevens, stressing his challenges to her over campaign funding and immigration. Center outlets generally present both candidates’ arguments, with fact checks on claims about spending and electability and some coverage of polling. Right-leaning outlets foreground Stevens’s celebrity-candidate criticism and the candidates’ disputes over Israel and outside spending.
