Abdul El-Sayed and former Representative Mike Rogers continued their heated Senate race in Michigan with sharp attacks during their second and final debate. Rogers questioned El-Sayed's loyalty to the country, suggesting ties to the Muslim Brotherhood and seeking to tie him to overseas Islamist groups. El-Sayed accused Rogers of being overly devoted to President Trump and bought and paid for by corporate donors.
The debate was more civil than their previous encounter, where Rogers focused on El-Sayed's Muslim faith and family history. Now, Rogers shifted tactics, asking if El-Sayed was "for America or... these terrorist groups overseas?" The contest remains tight, with El-Sayed defending the Democratic seat and Rogers seeking to flip it for Republicans. Polls suggest the outcome could decide control of the chamber.
