Mallory McMorrow, a Michigan state senator, announced she is suspending her campaign for the U.S. Senate. Her decision leaves the Democratic primary as a two-way race between Rep. Haley Stevens and former Wayne County Health Department Director Abdul El-Sayed.
Primary Election
McMorrow’s name will remain on the ballot for the Aug. 4 primary as ballots have already been printed and distributed to absentee voters. In a video, McMorrow thanked her staff and supporters for helping build a campaign powered by small-dollar donations and no corporate PAC money.
McMorrow pledged to fully support whichever Democrat wins the Aug. 4 primary and will likely face Mike Rogers in November. Stevens praised McMorrow as an ‘important voice’ for policies that benefit Michigan families and argued she is the strongest Democratic candidate to win the primary and defeat Rogers.
El-Sayed praised McMorrow for challenging the ‘rigged political system’ and invited her supporters to join his progressive movement to combat big money in politics and defeat the political establishment.
