El-Sayed's Michigan Win Shakes Democratic Party

Abdul El-Sayed, a progressive backed by Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, won Michigan's Democratic Senate primary, defeating Congresswoman Haley Stevens despite Stevens' $32 million in Aipac support. The narrow victory sets up a November contest against Republican Mike Rogers, testing left-wing appeal in a swing state. Other progressive wins, including Donavan McKinney's ouster of incumbent Shri Thanedar, signal shifting Democratic voter sentiment on Israel.
