Michigan Senate Race Goes to Football | Charleston News

Michigan’s Senate race just got a whole lot more dramatic as Republican candidate Mike Rogers calls his opponent, Abdul El-Sayed, “unserious” — prompting El-Sayed to issue a wild challenge: a no-pads tackle football game. The feud erupted after Rogers accused El-Sayed of wanting to cancel football traditions, and El-Sayed responded with a bold, attention-grabbing proposal. While the game may be a stunt, it’s working — polls show Rogers trailing by three points, a razor-thin margin in a state leaning Democratic. With personal attacks already flying, this football showdown is turning into one of the most unpredictable races of the cycle.
