It’s an earthquake to have Bernie Sanders’s candidate defeat Gretchen Whitmer’s candidate in Michigan. But the real goal is to keep Donald Trump’s candidate from winning this seat.
“Shortly after The Associated Press projected El-Sayed as the victor in the closely watched primary, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee Chair Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) released a joint statement supporting the newly minted nominee.”
"Abdul El-Sayed has run an energetic campaign that inspired thousands of Michiganders across the state, with a clear focus on lowering costs and standing up for working families,” they said. “Democrats are united by a common purpose: putting a check on [President] Donald Trump by defeating his Republican enablers and taking back the Senate.”
Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Mich.), El-Sayed’s top rival for the Democratic nomination, conceded the race on Wednesday morning and offered “my full support as we work to defeat Mike Rogers this November.”
Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, who had endorsed Stevens, also threw her support behind El-Sayed and all other Michigan Democratic candidates. “They’ve got my support as we fight like hell together to win in November,” said Whitmer. “Together, let’s stop MAGA Republicans so we can get to work and deliver results for the people of Michigan.”
It explicitly is “vote blue no matter who”, you raging illiterate.
Maybe if you organized and formed a broad grassroots movement based around communication to catch a W, like Michiganders did, instead of being a vitriolic dickhead, you’d have better options.
Yeah, blue no matter who right you bunch of worthless, hypocritical assholes?
I’m stuck having to vote for Katie Hobbs who’s supposedly running with a god damn Republican so you assholes better man the fuck up too.
surprisingly Democrats step up
So now that it’s done Haley Stevens is going to concede and back El-Sayed right? Blue no matter who???
We’re fucking waiting you little hobbit.
Edit: I should have looked harder. She did do those things. My bad.
Yes she did, hours before your comment.
Holy smokes broski! And you made your comment literally hours after I immediately corrected myself in the edit.
So…… I gotta ask, your thinker broken or what?
Yes, bud, she did. Your bad, absolutely.
