AIPAC-funded Stevens kicked out of Democratic Party after endorsing candidate yourself Rogers Haley Stevens lost her Democratic primary to Abdul El-Sayed, then she lost her party. The chairman of the Michigan Democratic Party declared that she "is not a current member of the Michigan Democratic Party, nor will she be in the future." The break came on Sunday, two days before the election, when Stevens endorsed Republican Mike Rogers, a man she spent months calling "annoying yourself," a "rubber stamp for Donald Trump's dangerous agenda" and "unfit to represent Michigan."
