The Upswing Research survey, conducted February 26 to March 2 among 600 likely voters, shows Stevens at 27%, McMorrow at 25%, El-Sayed at 23%, and 26% undecided.

Key Takeaway

In a poll of likely Democratic primary voters, Rep. Haley Stevens holds a slim edge, but State Sen. Mallory McMorrow and Abdul El-Sayed are right behind in the race for Michigan's open U.S. Senate seat.

DT Marks DEFI LLC, controlled by Donald Trump and his family, holds 22.5 billion tokens and receives 75% of sales revenue, while the project lists Trump family members in prominent roles; World Liberty Financial maintains it has robust compliance measures with no evidence of wrongdoing.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy hopes recent Middle East strikes by Iranian drones will finally greenlight a major U.S.-Ukraine joint production deal for interceptors, sensors, and air defenses.

Now, with Ukrainian teams assisting U.S. allies in Qatar, the UAE, and Saudi Arabia—and seven U.S. service members lost to Shaheds—the proposal gains fresh urgency, potentially bringing production, jobs, and stronger defenses.

Key Takeaway

Ukraine's drone experts rushed to the Gulf this week, sharing hard-won know-how against the very Shahed drones that have hammered their homeland for years.

Arbeloa stressed protecting the lead as priority amid the injury challenges.

Both have kids from prior marriages—Perry's daughter Daisy, 5, and Trudeau's three children—and they've stayed quiet amid the buzz.
