what happened
According to The New York Times, Michigan Democrats Stevens and El-Sayed continue their public quarrel just days before the vote. Representatives Debbie Dingell and James Clyburn tried to arrange a joint appearance at a Sunday event in Detroit, but the effort fell apart, and Ms. Stevens was not listed as a speaker.
Polls show the Senate race in Michigan against Republican Mike Rogers is very tight, and its outcome could determine which party controls the Senate. The paper also reports on the Scottsdale, Arizona city council election, where the fate of a planned wastewater recycling project is at stake.
why it matters
For markets this story is barely relevant: the internal Democratic conflict could affect chances in the Senate race, but the news carries no direct price effect.
