Story summary

Former Vice President Kamala Harris plans to visit Michigan next week to campaign with Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic nominee for Senate, aiming to unify voters in a key battleground state crucial for determining control of the Senate. This is their first public appearance together since Harris endorsed El-Sayed after his primary victory. They will attend a roundtable focused on Black maternal health, highlighting an issue important to El-Sayed as a former public health official and doctor. The visit comes ahead of November's election where El-Sayed faces Republican Mike Rogers, in a competitive race that could influence the balance of power in the Senate.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
