State Sen. Mallory McMorrow is expected to drop out of Michigan's competitive U.S. Senate race Sunday afternoon, according to three sources with knowledge of the development who were not authorized to speak publicly about her decision.

1. That's disappointing.

She’s very impressive.

2. Who will she endorse?

5. Not sure

Seems more likely she would endorse El-Sayed than Stevens, but who knows?

6. I guess she said she wont endorse anybody until after the primary

But she is the most progressive besides El Sayed and im guess most her votes go to El Sayed

3. I'm sad to know she's withdrawing and not doing well in that race but grateful that she will keep her MI Senate seatʻ

She is extraordinarily talented.

4. Pay wall. Mail ballots have gone out already.

7. Thank you, Mallory!

My fear was that McMorrow and Stevens would split the "centrist" Dem vote, nading the primary to El-Sayed. And El-Sayed may be too leftist/radical to beat Mike Rogers (R-FL but pretenting to be MI).

I was going with Stevens, but now can do that with no regrets, because I also like McMorrow.

I wonder how many McMorrow voters have already turned in their absentee ballots. There's still time for a re-vote, but that's a bit of work.

8. I was initially debating between her and El-Sayed, until I found out that Lis Smith was on her team.

One of her official social media accounts also made a really below the belt post about El-Sayed, which rubbed me the wrong way.

So nothing really changes for me. I will vote for any dem in the general election, of course.
