Key takeaways from US Senate debate in Michigan between El-Sayed, Rogers

Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed and Republican Mike Rogers faced off in their first televised debate in Michigan, less than a month before the midterm elections. The hour-long debate was tense, with El-Sayed portraying Rogers as a wealthy out-of-touch millionaire, while Rogers accused El-Sayed of being soft on terrorism. El-Sayed, potentially the first Muslim member of the US Senate if elected, has faced Islamophobic attacks, including from Donald Trump. The candidates exchanged accusations over a synagogue attack, with the race being key to controlling the US Senate.
