A Democrat Senate primary candidate is selling tickets to comedian Dave Chappelle's show in Detroit this month to raise money for his underdog campaign against Rep. Elissa Slotkin, D-Mich. In an event advertised on fundraising platform ActBlue, actor Hill Harper's campaign invited donors to a live show on July 11. The Democrat candidate described Chappelle as an 'old friend' in a statement to the Detroit News.
The Senate primary elections in Michigan will be held on Aug. 6. On the Republican side, former Rep. Mike Rogers, businessman Sandy Pensler and former Rep. Justin Amash are competing for the party's nomination. Rogers appears to have a significant edge over his opponents with the support of former President Trump and the National Republican Senatorial Committee.
Michigan is expected to play a pivotal role in deciding both the presidential election and which party will control the Senate in 2025. The state's significant Arab population has posed an issue for some Democrats already, including President Biden, as many have expressed frustration over his handling of the war between Israel and terrorist group Hamas in Gaza.
