El Sayed polling tight with Rogers while Benson holds advantage

Abdul el Sayed, the Democratic nominee for Michigan Senate, is in a very close race against Republican Mike Rogers, with El Sayed currently holding a slight 3% lead among likely voters. The race is within the margin of error, reflecting an unusual political dynamic less than seven weeks before the midterm elections, especially as Democrats lead in other Michigan races like the governor’s race and favor Democrats for the Senate overall.


Michigan Senate Democratic nominee Abdul el Sayed remains in a razor-thin race with Republican rival Mike Rogers despite Democrats holding leads in the state, highlighting the unusual political dynamic at play less than seven weeks out from the midterm elections.

El Sayed holds a 3% lead over Rogers, at 48% to 45% among likely voters, putting the contest within a 3.9-point margin of error, according to a Washington Post-Schar School poll released Thursday. That contrasts with Democrat Jocelyn Benson’s 12-point lead over GOP Rep. John James in Michigan’s gubernatorial race, and the state’s overall preference for Democrats to control the Senate by an 8-point margin.
