Bernie SandersEndorsed Abdul ElSayed Sees 'Opportunity' With Young Men
"Democratic Michigan U.S. Senate hopeful Abdul El-Sayed believes Democrats have an "opportunity" to win back young men, while also focusing on speaking to the pain many voters are feeling throughout society.
The former public health official, who has been endorsed by progressive Senator Bernie Sanders, a Vermont independent, announced his campaign on April 17, joining an increasingly crowded primary field of Democrats aiming to replace Michigan's outgoing Democratic Senator Gary Peters in 2026. State Senator Mallory McMorrow announced before El-Sayed, and Representative Haley Stevens of Michigan's 11th District threw her hat into the ring on Tuesday. Former Michigan state House Speaker Joe Tate is also expected to run.
The Michigan Senate race will be one of the closest watched next year, with Republicans seeing it as a prime pickup opportunity. While both of the Midwestern state's senators are currently Democrats, President Donald Trump won the state in 2016 and again in 2024. Prior to current Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer's win in 2018, the state had a Republican leading the state for two terms. Former GOP Representative Mike Rogers, who narrowly lost his 2024 Senate race to now Senator Elissa Slotkin, has already declared his candidacy."
