MSNOW: What is your message now to Jewish voters nationally and what you will do to protect them?
Abdul El-Sayed: I’m committed to Jewish safety, and we are united against discrimination. The U.S. spends billions to carry out genocide and apartheid against Palestinians. The genocide in Gaza with our complicity is continuing right now. Nobody wants to talk about that.

This has been the most rewarding, exhilarating, and exhausting 19 months of my life and I wouldn’t have it any other way. None of this is possible without all of you — the people. The people who knocked doors, canvassed, made phone calls, sent texts, volunteered, donated, shared a social media post, spread the word, and voted. This is OUR seat. I’m going to make you proud.
Thank you, Michigan!

Congratulations to every US candidate who defeated AIPAC’s attempts to bankroll politicians complicit in Israel’s genocide and apartheid in Palestine.
A historic victory for @AbdulElSayed, elected as America’s first Muslim senator. He defeated more than $70 million in Israel lobby spending against him.
From Palestine to migrant justice, from resisting authoritarianism to challenging the politics of hate, our struggles are connected. The fight for justice knows no borders on either side of the Atlantic.

"they tried to call you hateful if you believe Palestinian kids should get to grow up in the land of their forefathers without being murdered by our tax dollars.. we want our taxes spent here, for our schools & healthcare here. We dont want our $ sent to do apartheid or genocide"

Tonight, Michiganders chose a tough, principled leader who will stay laser-focused on making life easier and getting stuff done. I’m thrilled that Governor-elect Benson will lead our state.
Tonight, we also made history. For the first time in more than 60 years, Michigan elected back-to-back Democrats to the governor’s office. That means we can continue making historic progress for our families, our kids, and the state we’re lucky to call home.
Congratulations to Governor-elect Jocelyn Benson. I look forward to seeing all the good work you will do.

🚨 AMERICA HAS REJECTED TRUMP
Donald Trump told voters to treat him as though he were on the ballot.
They did.
🔵 Democrats have seized the Senate, flipping seats in Texas, Kansas, South Carolina, North Carolina and Ohio and are closing in on the House.
🤩 Texas even elected a Democratic governor.
This was a rebellion against Trump’s tariffs, corruption, Iran war and the soaring fuel, food and living costs his policies helped create.
🔴 Trumpism is not irresistible. Authoritarian power can be confronted and defeated through the ballot box.
🇬🇧 Britain should learn the lesson immediately.
🛑 Stop grovelling to a collapsing strongman. Stop tying our security, technology and economy to Trump’s America.
Our democratic future lies with Europe.

Michigan could very well be the state that flips control of the US Senate. Those are the stakes. Vote to send @AbdulElSayed to the US Senate by 8pm today.
