(The Center Square) – Michigan’s race for U.S. Senate remains still too close to call as the sun began to rise Wednesday morning, with the candidates separated by less than 15,000 votes with 95% of the vote counted.

Republican Mike Johnson led Democrat Rep. Elissa Slotkin 48.6% to 48.4% at around 6:30 a.m. Eastern, with Rogers capturing 2.59 million votes and Slotkin getting 2.58 million votes.

Polls closed at 8 p.m. on Tuesday in most places across the state, with those in line at 8 p.m. allowed to complete the voting process.

The race was dubbed by poll watchers as one of the closest in the nation. Polls had consistently given Slotkin a couple-point advantage.

FiveThirtyEight’s election forecast showed Slotkin “won” the seat 76 out of 100 times, while Rogers “won” the seat 24 out of 100 times. The current seat holder, Democrat Debbie Stabennow, will be vacating the position to retire, leaving open the possibility that Republicans could flip the seat.
