Michigan Senate candidate Mike Rogers’s campaign team is making a final warning to voters of Rep. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) about her alleged ties to China — an accusation both candidates have thrown at each other throughout the election cycle.
Slotkin and Mike Rogers, a former Republican House member, are both vying for the open U.S. Senate seat in Michigan currently held by Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-MI). The Cook Political Report labels the seat a “toss-up”; polling shows Slotkin leading Rogers 46.2% to 42.5%.
Now, with a week before Election Day, the Rogers campaign has launched a new website , seeking to convince voters that Slotkin’s congressional record has harmed the livelihood of Michiganders.
The website states that “Michigan voters can’t trust Slotkin to stand up to China,” as Slotkin had allegedly signed a nondisclosure agreement to coordinate with Gotion, a Chinese-owned electric vehicle battery company.
The Slotkin campaign denied that she signed an NDA tied to the development of the Gotion plant.
