Finished what will probably be my last robotics competition with 201 yesterday. Didn't really hit me until the end that the thing I put 8 years into was finally over. Only cried a little.
Anyone who thinks El-Sayed is a risk in November does not actually understand politics. El-Sayed is a generational political talent with an affordability-focused agenda, up against a woefully unpopular Republican Party that has no ideas except to shout COMMUNISM at everything.
Is there any elected Republican speaking out against how virulently racist so much of the party has become? I’ve never seen anything like this in my lifetime.
10-1 outspent.
endless smears.
64million in outside expenditures
organized people beat organized money tonight.
the work is only beginning. michigan will never be considered a swing state ever again.
Abdul El-Sayed was born in America. Melania Trump immigrated years later. It's amazing how selective some people are about who they call "real Americans."
AIPAC congratulates the 30 pro-Israel candidates who won their primaries in Kansas, Michigan, Missouri, Virginia and Washington. With these victories, more than 215 AIPAC-backed candidates from both parties have now advanced to the November general election this cycle.
In Michigan, AIPAC members were proud to stand with Governor Whitmer, Senator Peters, former Senator Stabenow, former Governor Granholm, Attorney General Dana Nessel, and the many others who supported Haley Stevens in the Senate primary, helping her fight for an authentic Democratic agenda for Michigan. Our members remain determined to ensure that voters reject Dr. El-Sayed and his radical anti-Israel agenda in November.
In Missouri's First District, AIPAC congratulates Congressman Wesley Bell on defeating former Representative Cori Bush for the second time. AIPAC members and United Democracy Project were proud to support Bell, a serious, thoughtful leader who delivers for his constituents. In Congress and throughout the race, Bush demonized AIPAC's members, attacked Israel, and refused to condemn Hamas terrorism—and voters made sure she did not make it back to Congress.
In Michigan's 11th District, Haley Stevens' open seat, the pro-Israel community was proud to support State Senator Jeremy Moss in his win over two anti-Israel detractors. Would-be Squad member Aisha Farooqi, who accused Israel of "genocide," called for cutting off all aid to Israel, and disparaged AIPAC members, and Don Ufford, who worked to smear pro-Israel Democrats, both lost—leaving pro-Israel leadership in place as Moss succeeds Stevens in this safe Democratic seat.
While disappointed that some of our AIPAC-backed candidates did not prevail, our community is proud to support pro-Israel Democrats and Republicans who stand for our values, and we are encouraged that voters in races across this primary season continue to broadly choose leaders who support a strong U.S.-Israel partnership.
These results demonstrate that AIPAC’s nearly 7 million members remain determined to make the case for a strong U.S.-Israel relationship that makes America stronger. Through AIPAC, millions of American citizens will keep working to help elect pro-Israel leaders and to help defeat anti-Israel detractors between now and November, and in many cycles ahead.
I appreciate AIPAC proving it doesn’t belong in the Dem Party and especially our primaries.
From endorsing Jan 6th members to ensuring Congress remains in the hands of a 34-count felon, AIPAC is an org committed to undermining democracy at home and abroad.
See you in November.
Putting your hand up to participate in democracy is no easy thing. Thank you for running, Congresswoman. Looking forward to uniting this fall to beat Mike Rogers. Because what unites us is so much bigger than what divides us.
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.
