Thank you all to everyone for all the effort and support.
While not the result we wanted, I’m very proud of everyone’s work and grateful for everything you have given to this campaign.
Thank you to Mount Pleasant for giving me the opportunity of a lifetime. I’m so very grateful for everyone who voted for me.
Thank you for the journey. See you for the next one.

“The Road to Socialism Runs Through the State Legislatures”
Not to be overlooked in the inspiring results for @DemSocialists candidates in congressional and municipal races were the many leftists elected to U.S. statehouses.
I wrote about the triumph of socialist policies in state capitols for @curaffairs.

For years, my dad battled Parkinson’s disease. On Election Night, I got to tell him, “Pop, we won.”
This morning, he passed away.
A part of me believes he held on just long enough to see his son make it to Congress.
He won’t be there when I’m sworn in. But I know he’ll be standing right beside me.
Rest easy, Daddy. I’ll take it from here. These next two years are for you ❤️

Abdul El-Sayed on Israel:
My approach is simple: Treat the government of Israel the way you would treat any other government that did the same thing.
My family comes from Egypt, and I want to do the same thing with Egypt.
Egypt violates human rights law. Egypt shouldn't be getting $3.3 billion of our tax dollars.
And I would hate if somebody would be like, "Well, because you share the ethnicity of 95% of the people in Egypt, for us to say that the Egyptian government is doing terrible things must be anti-Egyptian."
No, it is just applying our principles evenly everywhere.
