## Summary

Supporters at Abdul El-Sayed’s campaign rally in Detroit said they want a progressive candidate who will address the cost of living and represent a major change in Michigan politics. The rally, which featured former President Barack Obama, comes as El-Sayed seeks to unite Democratic voters ahead of November’s Senate election against Republican Mike Rogers.

People interviewed cited education, healthcare and affordability as priorities, and some supported government cash assistance, though the article gives no specific voter consensus on guaranteed income. El-Sayed’s platform includes Medicare-for-all, a higher federal minimum wage and expanded social safety-net programmes; he is an epidemiologist and former Wayne County health director running to succeed retiring Senator Gary Peters.
