DETROIT, Mich. -- Abdul El-Sayed will be on the ballot this November.

AP has called the Democratic US Senate primary race in Michigan in favor of El-Sayed. This comes after a contentious, expensive campaign against Haley Stevens.

He will face off against Republican nominee Mike Rogers on Election Day.

In a new statement, Stevens offered her support of El-Sayed. It reads, in part:

Donald Trump and Mike Rogers want us to come out of this primary tired and divided, so their billionaire backers can come in and let multimillionaire Mike Rogers walk away with this Senate seat. They want to keep the Senate red, so Mike Rogers can keep rubber-stamping Donald Trump’s harmful agenda of higher prices, manufacturing jobs lost nationwide, corruption and abuses of power, and so he can ban abortion, gut health care, and roll back workers’ rights and voting rights.

I’m not going to let that happen.

We must elect Democrats up and down the ballot. We need to flip some important House seats. We need to re-elect my friends Hillary Scholten and Kristen McDonald Rivet. We need to win this Senate seat, because Elissa Slotkin deserves a partner like Abdul in the U.S. Senate.

I am proud of the coalition our campaign put together: Black Michiganders, working class Michiganders, union members, farmers, hard-working families. The Michiganders who backed this campaign truly represent the grit, diversity, and spirit of our state, and I am honored to have earned each of their votes.
