Mike Rogers claims he’s ahead by 7 percent on ballots returned so far ‘by our models’

Michigan Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers claims he leads by nearly seven percent among early-returned ballots, according to his campaign models, despite recent polls favoring Democratic opponent Abdul El-Sayed. Rogers stated, "We're actually about seven percent ahead on voters that we believe are voting for us returning their ballots," during a recent appearance, though no official ballot data has been released to confirm the claim.
