as posted by the channel

CNN’s Manu Raju reports from Michigan where a Democratic primary race for a key Senate seat is dividing the party over issues like Israel, immigration and party leadership on Capitol Hill.

Michigan’s open Senate seat is now emerging as a GOP hedge against a potential takeover for Democrats, who need to net four seats to flip the chamber.

Losing Michigan would make the Democrats’ task almost impossible, a major reason why a leading Republican outside group just announced plans to pour $45 million into the state – more than any other pickup opportunity – to boost former Rep. Mike Rogers, the likely GOP nominee.
