Contributing sentiments towards policy:

65% : "And I've been in particularly some of the more conservative parts of our state, because that's where my strength is."While both Senate candidates are showing up when the presidential candidates are in town, Rogers is focusing his bid more on direct voter targeting over events or interviews.
60% : That might be enough for Rogers if Trump wins this state by 10 points.
41% : "I don't know much about him, but I'm focused on Trump.
39% : (A campaign spokesman declined to even share a public schedule beyond his stops with Trump.)
31% : We elect Donald J. Trump on Nov. 5."Although Trump teased Rogers would join him on stage as Senate nominees in other states have done, that cameo did not happen.
30% : I'm running Mike Rogers' campaign for the United States Senate," he told NBC News this month when confronted with the mismatch with Trump, whom he blasted after the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the Capitol.
27% : "We cannot take another four years of Harris," Rogers said at that rally before Trump took the stage.
10% : "Polls show Harris and Trump dead even, while Slotkin is running about four points ahead of Rogers.
5% : Trump's coattails may be imaginary at this point, but the insiders on the ground in Michigan know this reality: at this point in 2016 -- two weeks before Election Day -- Hillary Clinton was up 8 points on Trump; Clinton lost by one-third of 1 point when the votes were actually counted.
