Debbie Stabenow
Democratic



The 2024 United States Senate election in Michigan will be held on November 5, 2024, to elect a Class I member of the United States Senate to represent the state of Michigan. It will be held concurrently with the 2024 United States presidential election, other elections to the United States Senate, other elections to the United States House of Representatives, and various state and local elections. The Democratic nominee is U.S. Representative Elissa Slotkin, while the Republican nominee is former U.S. Representative Mike Rogers. The winner will succeed Democratic incumbent Debbie Stabenow, who is not seeking a fifth term.

Primary elections took place on August 6, 2024.[1] The election is considered essential for Democrats' chances to retain the Senate majority in 2024.[2] Slotkin won the Democratic nomination with 76% of the vote over actor Hill Harper and Rogers won the Republican nomination with 63% of the vote over former congressman Justin Amash. This will be the first open race for this seat since 1994, which was the only time since 1972 that Republicans won a Michigan U.S. Senate race.[3][4]

Background

[edit]

A swing state, Michigan is considered to be a purple to slightly blue state at the federal level, with Joe Biden carrying Michigan by 2.8 percentage points at the 2020 presidential election. However, Democrats have seen much more success in recent years in the state. Democrats currently control both U.S. Senate seats, seven of 13 of the U.S. House congressional delegation, the minimum majority in both houses of the Michigan Legislature, and all statewide offices.[5]

This race is considered to be competitive given the state's nearly even partisan lean and that there is no incumbent; however, most analysts consider the race leaning towards the Democrats.[6] In-fighting among Michigan Republicans after the 2022 elections left the state party poor in funding for the U.S. Senate race[7] and defaulting on a bank loan.[8][9] The MIGOP also failed to meet campaign finance reporting deadlines.[10]

Campaign

[edit]

Elissa Slotkin has led the field in fundraising with nearly $16 million raised as of April 2024.[11][12][13] Nearly $6 million of this had been raised before August 2023.[14] She continued to dominate fundraising in the second quarter of 2024 outpacing her Republican opponent by as much as three-to-one with 95% of her contributions coming from donors giving $100 or less according to the campaign.[15][16]

Slotkin released the first TV ad of the primary campaign on May 28 which focused on her work in national security in the George W. Bush and Obama administrations.[17]

Campaign contribution allegations

[edit]

In November 2023, Hill Harper claimed that he had been offered $20 million in campaign contributions from former Motown Motion Picture Studios owner Linden Nelson if he would drop out of the Senate race to mount a primary challenge against U.S. Representative Rashida Tlaib.[18][19][20] The allegation was denied by Nelson.[18][21] Nasser Beydoun subsequently also alleged that former Michigan Democratic Party chair Lon Johnson had approached him with an identical offer to drop out of the Senate race and primary Tlaib. Johnson denied the claims, saying, "that's just crazy. I didn't offer him $20 million, or any other amount of money, to run against Rashida. That's insane."[22] Beydoun was later disqualified from the ballot.[23]

Amash, Pensler and Rogers were certified to be on the Republican primary ballot at the end of May.[112]

Residency controversy

[edit]

Even though Rogers is a former Michigan congressman, he owns a home in Cape Coral, Florida, and was registered to vote in Florida in 2022.[113] He has since purchased a home in White Lake Township, living outside Brighton while that home is remodeled. He also changed his voting registration back to Michigan.[114] His Florida residency became the subject of negative ads against him.[115][116][117]
