EXCERPT:
Retiring Sen. Gary Peters (D-MI) endorsed establishment-backed Rep. Haley Stevens (D-MI) in Michigan’s race to succeed him in the Senate.
Peters backed Stevens over the more progressive candidate Abdul el Sayed in the highly anticipated Aug. 4 Democratic primary for the Michigan Senate seat, putting his thumb on the scale days after the candidates faced off in their first one-on-one debate.
“This is not about rhetoric. It’s about action. She has been a fighter for Michigan. She has been effective in getting things done for the state,” Peters said of Stevens to the Detroit News.
