MICHIGAN, November 4, 2026: Democrat Abdul El-Sayed has defeated Republican Mike Rogers in the Michigan US Senate race, according to a projection by Decision Desk HQ, which corrected its earlier projection of the winner.

With the projected victory, El-Sayed is set to make history as the first Muslim elected to the United States Senate.

El-Sayed campaigned on an agenda centred on universal healthcare and government accountability. The closely watched contest took place in Michigan, one of the country's key political battleground states.

The projection marks a significant milestone in US political representation, although the result remains subject to the official counting and certification process.
