Sour grapes? Dems shocked as Haley Stevens breaks ranks
Michigan Democrat Haley Stevens has shocked her party by endorsing Republican Mike Rogers in the state's Senate race, just one day before crucial midterm elections.
The endorsement comes as both parties make their final appeals to voters ahead of the midterm elections. Stevens' decision to back Rogers over her fellow Democrat El-Sayed has sent ripples through the political landscape in Michigan.
Primary fallout
Stevens' move follows her bitter defeat to El-Sayed in the Michigan Democrats' Senate primary. The contentious nature of that race has led some party members to accuse her of acting out of sour grapes rather than principle.
