It's a blow for Democratic nominee Abdul El-Sayed in the final days of his campaign, and an escalation of their feud.

Democratic Rep. Haley Stevens endorsed Republican Mike Rogers in the Michigan Senate race on Sunday β€” a stunning break with her party that derails Democrats’ attempts to create a united front for Abdul El-Sayed.

Her endorsement comes just a few days after she said she was going to vote for El-Sayed.

The two former primary rivals have been locked in a public, escalating feud over El-Sayed's and his allies' criticism of Israel.

β€œAbdul said that I was no longer welcome in his campaign and that I should stay away. And he’s right,” Stevens said in a video posted to social media on Sunday after she appeared at a Detroit church alongside Rogers.

β€œAnd that’s why I am endorsing Mike Rogers for the United States Senate today,” she said. β€œI don’t belong in Abdul’s campaign.”
