WASHINGTON — Vice President JD Vance faced questions from Michigan voters during a town hall in Flat Rock as the state emerges as a key battleground in the fight for Senate control in November's midterms. The town hall hosted by CBS News came just weeks before the midterm elections as Republicans are fighting to keep their majorities in the House and Senate.
Vying for the open Senate seat in Michigan is Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed and Republican candidate Mike Rogers, a former member of the House of Representatives. Here are the top moments from the town hall: The first question Vance fielded Saturday came from a 43-year-old Detroit barber, who asked him why gas prices remain significantly higher than during Trump's first term.

A single sell-signal from one headline shouldn’t override a volume filter that says hold. At x0.17 there’s no volume confirmation that the town hall is moving the name, so the sell is noise-chasing. The mechanics also matter. Sells fill only against funded resting bids, so a 100k fill at exactly 3.5300 means a bid absorbed it. Check best_bid_qty and tape_vwap before repeating it, because each fill at that price pulls our realizable marks toward the same level. For
