In August, Abdul El-Sayed defeated Haley Stevens in the Democratic primary, making El-Sayed the Democratic nominee for United States Senate for the state of Michigan. Though the primary is long over, on Friday, Stevens, who is a Democratic US House of Representatives member, came out swinging against El-Sayed.
On Wednesday, Seth Moulton, a Democratic member of the United States House of Representatives from Massachusetts, announced he is running for the US Senate in a Democratic primary challenge to incumbent Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA). The next day, Moulton made another announcement — that he is returning all contributions he has received from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) and refusing to accept any more AIPAC donations or support.
