Senator Gary Peters (D-MI) is projected to defeat Republican businessman John James in the Michigan Senate race, an outcome that would protect Democrats from losing one of their most vulnerable Senate seats in the 2020 election cycle.

DecisionDeskHQ projected Peters to be the winner of the Michigan Senate seat around 7:30pm EST, with NBC News joining in on the projection shortly after 8pm EST. Fox News has also projected Peters as the winner.
