‘Committed Democrats’ Say They’re A Hard No On Abdul El-Sayed

A group of Michigan voters who call themselves committed Democrats said on MSNOW's "Morning Joe" that they cannot support Abdul El-Sayed, their party's U.S. Senate nominee, in November. Daily Wire reports the focus-group segment aired Tuesday, and the participants were lifelong party loyalists who would normally back the ticket. The moderator observed that the harm to his standing seemed already done. One woman said the situation leaves their hands tied.

Some participants said a clear declaration of support for Israel and for Jewish people's right to live free of hatred might help, though another voter doubted anyone would find it believable, and the first woman admitted she was unsure. In a separate session, several black voters said they felt El-Sayed was counting on their votes without introducing himself or addressing local concerns. One said she would mark "uncommitted" instead, and others in the room agreed.

Daily Wire says El-Sayed has spent much of his campaign managing fallout over his ties to streamer Hasan Piker. He now faces former Rep. Mike Rogers, a Michigan Republican, in a close contest, and has publicly dared President Donald Trump to campaign in the state.
