Democratic US Rep. Elissa Slotkin wins election to Michigan’s open US Senate seat.
Slotkin’s victory preserves a key seat for Democrats following the retirement of longtime Sen. Debbie Stabenow.
Slotkin is a former CIA analyst who was first elected in 2018 to Congress, where she serves on the House Armed Services Committee.
Slotkin, who is Jewish, has at times faced criticism for not being harder on Israel in a state with a large Arab-American community.
Slotkin defeated former congressman Mike Rogers, who was attempting to become the first Republican in 30 years to win a US Senate race in Michigan.
