AIPAC makes last‑minute donation to boost Mike Rogers in Michigan Senate race

El-Sayed vs Rogers, final round. Two visions of Michigan, one Senate seat. The Hill's takeaways: sharp clashes on policy, no clear knockout. After all the ads and debate theater—who actually walks away with Michigan's future?

AIPAC is expected to indirectly spend $9 million on Mike Rogers' behalf in Michigan before the Nov election.

The Michigan Senate debate on Wednesday turned fiery, as Republican Mike Rogers effectively accused Democrat Abdul El-Sayed of dual loyalty to a foreign Islamic group — and El-Sayed turned it right back on him.

"For all of the gracious words they have said about each other in public and (reportedly) to each other in private, the fact remains that El-Sayed is part of the Democratic party’s progressive wing." @citizencohn.bsky.social on Obama and El-Sayed:

Absolute disgraceful behavior at the Michigan Senate debate. Watch El Sayed completely school his opponent for questioning his patriotism and faith with bigoted, baseless smears. Total composure under fire against weak, shameful tactics. #momsky#sheshed #momthevote

After being caught on tape planning to intimidate Detroit voters with off-duty cops, Rogers conveniently changed his tune to "easy to vote, hard to cheat."

Mike Rogers at tonight's Michigan Senate debate, pressing Abdul El-Sayed on the Muslim Brotherhood: "Own up to it." Fox's own write-up of the debate says there's no evidence El-Sayed has any affiliation with the group. Rogers is closing on a smear Fox won't stand behind.

When you literally can't make this up. Mike Rogers wants cops to intimidate voters. Why would he want to do this? Because he's terrified he's going to lose & will do anything to prevent people from voting. The entire GOP's plan is simple Cheat, cheat, cheat. unitingnow.substack.com/p/leaked-aud...

As a Jewish person AIPAC's support of the MAGA/clear fascists like Mike Rogers and all the Trump supporters is deeply troubling: www.nytimes.com/2026/10/21/u...

I'm a Jew from Michigan with a degree in linguistics, and I have come to really appreciate Abdul El-Sayed's quick and incisive wit. I didn't vote for him in the primary, but I'm enthusiastically voting for him to bring this energy to the Senate. 🙌

AIPAC will send $9 million to Republican Rep. Mike Rogers' super PAC to defeat Abdul El-Sayed in #MISen, per just-out NYT. Democratic Party pollsters John Anzalone / Impact Research, Global Strategy Group, and Greenberg Quinlan Rosner work for AIPAC, getting paid millions. The firms had no comment.
