AP Decision Notes: What to expect in Michigan’s state primary

Michigan voters are heading to the polls Tuesday for a competitive Democratic U.S. Senate primary between U.S. Rep. Haley Stevens and former Detroit public health official Abdul El-Sayed. This race is significant not only for its impact on Senate control but also as a test for the progressive wing of the Democratic party and a powerful pro-Israel organization. Stevens is backed by the Democratic establishment, while El-Sayed has endorsements from prominent progressive leaders. Outside groups, particularly a committee affiliated with AIPAC, have spent heavily in support of Stevens. The winner will face Republican Mike Rogers in November. The primary also includes contests for governor and U.S. House seats in this key battleground state.
