Levin backs El-Sayed in Michigan Senate race, centered on policy unity amid Israel-Palestine tensions
Former Michigan Democrat Sander Levin endorsed Abdul El-Sayed for the open U.S. Senate seat, saying he aligns with El-Sayed on climate, trade, and health care but disagrees with his Israeli-Palestinian views; Levin stressed loyalty to the Democratic ticket and highlighted his family’s Michigan political legacy as context for the endorsement while noting El-Sayed’s campaign with Hasan Piker drew scrutiny from some Jewish voters.
