Senate hopefuls clash on Trump, tariffs, and health care in Michigan and Kansas

Senate candidates in Michigan and Kansas clashed over President Donald Trump, the economy, and health care in high-stakes debates, with control of the Senate potentially at stake. The contests are among the most closely watched ahead of Election Day. In Michigan, Democrat Abdul El-Sayed tied Republican Mike Rogers to Trump, while Rogers called El-Sayed too extreme. El-Sayed backed Medicare for All and Supreme Court changes; Rogers opposed the policy and previously voted against the Affordable Care Act. In Kansas, Republican Sen. Roger Marshall touted his Trump relationship, while Democrat Adam Hamilton distanced himself from national leaders. They sparred over tariffs, with Marshall citing job creation and Hamilton warning of increased business costs.
