New Poll Shows Stevens Leading Rogers, El-Sayed Trailing

Campaign-backed polls show Abdul El-Sayed ahead 48% to 37% as outside spending tops $41 million in the closely watched Democratic Senate primary.

  • Ahead of Tuesday's primary, Democrat Abdul El-Sayed, former director of the Department of Health, Human, and Veterans Services of Wayne County, has opened a lead over Representative Haley Stevens in recent polling.
  • Outside spending in the primary has surpassed $41 million, fueling tensions between El-Sayed, who aligns with progressives, and the establishment-backed Stevens over competing visions for the race.
  • The AIPAC-affiliated United Democracy Project has spent nearly $30 million opposing El-Sayed, its largest single-race investment, while campaign-sponsored polls show him leading Stevens 48 percent to 37 percent.
  • Stevens' campaign warns that a win by El-Sayed on Tuesday puts the Senate seat at risk for Democrats, arguing she is better positioned to beat Republican Mike Rogers in November.
  • Progressives believe El-Sayed is better positioned to win back Arab American voters in Dearborn, where dissatisfaction with the Biden administration's handling of the war in Gaza fueled voter frustration during the primary.
