THE BARE STORY
Democrat Abdul El-Sayed defeated Republican Mike Rogers in Michigan’s U.S. Senate race, according to the election summaries. The result came as Democrats captured control of both the Senate and House of Representatives.
El-Sayed’s campaign focused on Medicare for All, reducing costs and limiting corporate money in politics, according to his campaign platform. Disputes over Israel and the war in Gaza were also a prominent issue during the contest.
After the election, El-Sayed welcomed what he described as President Donald Trump’s plan to end about $4 billion in annual U.S. military aid to Israel by the end of the year. He also called for ending U.S. weapons sales to Israel, citing allegations of genocide and apartheid.
