Congratulations Abdul!!!! I can’t believe I know a Democratic nominee for Senate! Or that this picture was 11 years ago. The idea of Abdul being in the Senate advocating for public health and access to health care, especially at a time when RFKJ is in charge at HHS, is incredible to contemplate.

I don’t exactly have the power of an AOC endorsement, but I’ve known Abdul for quite some time and I would be thrilled to see him represent public health in the Senate. He was our class speaker when I graduated from undergrad (Go Blue!) and then I got to know him better when were both at Columbia.

One Muslim Senate CANDIDATE is enough to terrify the GOP. Imagine what will happen when El-Sayed wins? What losers.

Moderate Michigan Rep. Hillary Scholten does not offer endorsement of El-Sayed

Other centrist Senate Democrats also sounded reticent about embracing their Michigan Senate nominee

My take: "Abdul El-Sayed Projected Winner in Michigan! What It Means for Dems and America!" thelefthook.substack.com/p/abdul-el-s...

AIPAC Couldn't Buy the Michigan Primary. What's Next for Democrats and their Relationship With Israel? thelefthook.substack.com/p/aipac-coul...

AIPAC is expected to continue spending against Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan as they shift their support from Haley Stevens to Republican nominee Mike Rogers. AIPAC spokeswoman: “Our members remain determined to ensure that voters reject Dr. El-Sayed and his radical anti-Israel agenda in November,”

Now they're going to move on to Francesca Hong in Wisconsin. It'll be even uglier than what you saw in Michigan.

If you aren't angry then you aren't paying attention.

I’m sure it’s happened before but I can’t recall a candidate winning a statewide nomination while being outspent ~9:1

No no no, unity is when leftists join with ME or it's their fault when Republicans win. Me having to join with leftists doesn't feel like unity, and if Republicans win it's their fault for asking me.

Money out of politics. Money in your pocket. Medicare for All. Michigan... We won. I am so proud to be your Democratic nominee for US Senate. Let's win in November.

Progressive activist wins Democratic primary in one of the country’s biggest House races

Sunrise Movement co-founder William Lawrence is the Democratic nominee in Michigan’s 7th District, NBC News projects, a key battleground in the fight for the House majority.

Leftists winning popular elections is very divisive. How are you supposed to unify a country with this sort of thing. I ask you.

E-bikes give people affordable, clean transportation. If kids are getting hit by pickup trucks, the answer isn’t to treat e-bikes like the problem; it’s protected bike lanes, safer crossings, lower traffic speeds, and infrastructure that keeps everyone separated from multi-ton vehicles.

i really have no patience whatsoever for people who are scared of muslims having elected office

Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.

I think the close result tells us is a) tv ads still work on low-info voters and b) Abdul's ground game is real

No matter the margin the story is that Haley Stevens got $70M of support, more than $30M of it from a single organization, and still lost.

welcome to the Losers Backing Winners club, it’s very exclusive

What a strange headline after progressives and DSA candidates won the primary for the Senate, two US house races, and several state legislature seats, and a mayoralship.
