## Key points

- Haley Stevens endorsed Republican Mike Rogers in Michigan’s Senate race.
- Democratic leaders condemned the move as a betrayal.
- The endorsement deepened divisions shortly before election day.

## Summary

Congresswoman Haley Stevens endorsed Republican Mike Rogers in Michigan’s Senate race days before the election, prompting sharp criticism from prominent Democrats and progressive supporters of Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed. The dispute matters because it has exposed divisions within the party at a pivotal point in a contest Democrats hope to win.

Stevens said El-Sayed had told her to stay away from his campaign and criticised his association with streamer Hasan Piker. New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani, Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer, House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries and DNC chairman Ken Martin condemned her decision; Michigan party chair Curtis Hertel said she would no longer be a party member. Stevens lost the Democratic primary to El-Sayed earlier in the year and is due to leave Congress in January; the article also reports that some of her staff left after the endorsement.
