U.S. Rep. Haley Stevens will report more than $2.5 million in receipts for her Senate campaign during the last quarter, closing out with nearly $2 million in cash reserves, her campaign said Thursday.
Stevens’ campaign says 93% of individual contributions were $100 or less. The total includes a transfer of $1.2 million from her U.S. House campaign account to her fledgling Senate account.
“I’m honored to have received the support of so many Michiganders to win this Senate seat,” the Birmingham Democrat said in a statement.
“My life has been defined by moments when Michigan is in crisis, and during these uncertain times I will continue to stand against the Trump administration’s chaos and reckless policies and do what I have always done: fight for Michigan and win for Michigan.”
Reports for the quarter aren’t due to the Federal Election Commission until mid-July, and The Detroit News will provide further details about the fundraising once those are available.
Only one other Senate candidate has publicly announced their haul for the last three months: State Sen. Mallory McMorrow of Royal Oak, who said earlier this week she raised over $2.1 million since her launch earlier this year.
Both Stevens and McMorrow are seeking the Democratic nomination for the seat left open by retiring Democratic U.S. Sen. Gary Peters, D-Bloomfield Township. Other high-profile Democratic contenders include state Rep. Joe Tate of Detroit and former gubernatorial candidate and public health official Abdul El-Sayed of Ann Arbor.
By comparison, U.S. Sen. Elissa Slotkin, D-Holly raised $3 million during her first, partial fundraising quarter in 2023 after launching her Senate campaign and before she had any primary challengers. Slotkin also transferred money from her U.S. House account to her Senate account that first quarter, about $619,000.
On the Republican side, former U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers of White Lake Township is consolidating early support from national Republican party leaders. U.S. Rep. Bill Huizenga, R-Holland, also is seriously considering a bid.
Michigan’s Senate race is expected to be closely watched, as the battleground state gives Republicans one of their best pick-up opportunities in 2026.
