Abdul El-Sayed’s Senate campaign asks Haley Stevens to stay away in Michigan GOP Senate nominee Mike Rogers seized on the fractured Democratic dynamic, suggesting Rep. Stevens should campaign with him. Feuding Democratic Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed and Rep. Haley Stevens were scheduled to make their first joint campaign appearance since August this weekend. Instead, their rift grew uglier, with El-Sayed’s campaign telling Stevens to stay away in the waning days of the state’s pivotal race, a Democratic source familiar with the matter confirmed to MS NOW Saturday. The source requested anonymity to discuss information the individual was not authorized to disclose. Politico was first to report on the flaring public tensions between El-Sayed and Stevens.

Changed to sort by top and not hot. Hot seems to be the most duchy comment that provokes the most counter arguments.

Kind of wild how it’s always radio silence from the “Vote Blue No Matter Who” brigade in comment sections like this, where you have a centrist Dem using their platform to bash a progressive or leftist candidate just a couple days prior to elections, but the other day I was seeing them elsewhere telling people that they need to shut up with criticism of Gavin Newsom already, because he is (according to them) the likely presidential nominee for 2028, and now is not the time for criticizing each other. Where’s the outrage and insistence that El-Sayed will be better than any GOP candidate, so we need to support him now? Oh, that’s right, that slogan is really just meant as a cudgel to punch left, I forgot we aren’t meant to think it really extends to dirty progressives and socialists. My bad.

She’s just putting country ahead of party… PS: That country isn’t the US.
