The Concerns in Michigan's Congressional and Senate Races

In Michigan, the Senate and congressional races are under scrutiny due to President Biden's declining numbers. The open Senate seat for retiring Senator Stabenow is seen as a potential Republican win if Biden falters. The Michigan 7th, 8th, and 10th districts could be at risk of Republican victories if Biden's support weakens, leading to possible losses for Michigan Democrats.
