Finally, the debate you've all been waiting for: U.S. Senate candidates Abdul El-Sayed and Mike Rogers face off at WOOD-TV in Grand Rapids. You can watch it here.
It's the first U.S. Senate debate in in the general
election. Rogers declined to participate in a Fox 2 Detroit debate last month. The pair will appear at the Detroit Economic Club on Oct. 20 for consecutive interviews, and are set to debate again on Oct. 21 at WXYZ-TV .
It's been a tense campaign for Democrat El-Sayed and Republican Rogers, and the Oct. 8 debate may be the most anticipated event of the 2026 election cycle.
We want to know who won.
So, take our totally unscientific poll, and check back later to see how others voted.
