Stevens’ 12-to-1 Michigan spending advantage over El-Sayed

Axios · back to the audit

Outside super PACs backing Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Mich.) are outspending Abdul El-Sayed on television by more than 12 to 1 during the final five weeks of Michigan’s Democratic Senate primary. The total: $26.9 million for Stevens versus $2.1 million for El-Sayed, from July 1 to the Aug. 4 primary, according to AdImpact. A constellation of super PACs is fueling Stevens’ advertising blitz. United Democracy Project, the AIPAC-affiliated super PAC, has reserved roughly $19 million in broadcast television ad time.
