Democrat Primary Narrowed to Two | US News

Democrat Mallory McMorrow has dropped out of the U.S. Senate race, leaving Haley Stevens and Abdul El-Sayed as the final two contenders in a heated primary showdown. With McMorrow’s exit, the race has sharpened into a battle between establishment-backed Stevens and progressive favorite El-Sayed — set to clash in a high-stakes debate this Tuesday. McMorrow cited overwhelming outside spending, particularly from pro-Israel groups, as a key reason for her withdrawal. El-Sayed called for McMorrow’s supporters to rally behind him, accusing party insiders of steering the nomination, while Stevens vowed to unite the party and defeat GOP challenger Mike Rogers. The contest now reflects a deepening Democratic divide, with Senate Leader Chuck Schumer and Attorney General Dana Nessel backing Stevens, while Bernie Sanders and AOC support El-Sayed — all eyes on who will emerge as the party’s best shot to flip this critical Senate seat in November.
