Summary

Michigan is a battleground state in this year's presidential election. It's also where Republicans, in their quest to regain Senate control, hope to turn a blue seat red. Former congressman Mike Rogers is running against Democratic Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin to replace retiring Democratic senator Debbie Stabenow. Earlier this week, Fox News Rundown host Dave Anthony spoke to Rogers about his race and the pressure he’s feeling to win and help his party take back power in the Senate. Rogers discussed what issues Michigan voters care about the most and how he feels a Republican-led Senate can better address the economy and crime. We often must cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview. This week on the Fox News rundown, we will share our entire interview with republican senate candidate Mike Rogers. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
