Former Congressman Mike Rogers Announces Senate Run in Michigan
Former Congressman Mike Rogers has officially entered the race for the U.S. Senate seat in Michigan, aiming to unseat the incumbent Democrats and bring change to the state. With a fervent crowd of supporters in Lansing, Rogers filed thousands of petitions to secure a spot on the August primary ballot, expressing his determination to win back the seat for the people of Michigan and working families.
Rogers, who previously served seven terms in Congress, is confident in his ability to win this time around after narrowly losing a Senate race in 2024. He dismissed concerns about the upcoming midterm elections being challenging for Republicans, emphasizing the unique energy and dynamics in Michigan with open races for both governor and U.S. Senate.
If successful in the Republican primary, Rogers will go head-to-head with the Democratic nominee in November. Recent polls indicate a tight race among Democratic contenders including U.S. Representative Haley Stevens, State Senator Mallory McMorrow, and Dr. Abdul El-Sayed, a prominent public health official and advocate.
Michigan residents can anticipate a competitive and closely watched Senate race as candidates gear up for the primaries and the general election, each vying to represent the state in Washington.
