Haley Stevens, a sitting Democratic congresswoman from Michigan, appeared alongside Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers on Sunday in a surprise intervention ahead of the US midterm elections.

Stevens endorsed Rogers in the state’s crucial US Senate race rather than supporting Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic nominee. Her decision triggered a dispute within the party in Michigan.

BBC correspondent Nada Tawfik visited Detroit, where the political fallout unfolded.
