Progressive Abdul El-Sayed wins Michigan Democratic Senate primary

Abdul El-Sayed, a progressive populist and former state health official, won Michigan's Democratic Senate primary, defeating U.S. Rep. Haley Stevens in a race that highlighted the party's progressive-moderate divide. CBS News projected El-Sayed's victory, setting up a general election matchup against Republican Mike Rogers. El-Sayed ran on a platform of universal health care and removing corporate money from politics. His criticism of Israel was a flashpoint in the campaign, reflecting a growing shift among Democrats against Israel's actions, according to France 24. The closely watched contest was seen as a test of the party's divisions. El-Sayed will compete for one of Michigan's two Senate seats, and Republicans, including Rogers, are expected to use the result as fresh ammunition in the crucial battleground state.
