Stevens’s Fiance Says He’ll Vote for Rogers over El-Sayed
Turkish said Abdul El-Sayed’s debate remarks on Israel pushed him to back Rogers in a race where Jewish voters are a key target.
- Jason Turkish, fiancé of Rep. Haley Stevens, announced Wednesday he will support Republican Mike Rogers in Michigan's Senate race, citing concerns over the Democratic nominee's recent campaign rhetoric and political associations.
- Turkish decided to break with his party after the first general election debate, when candidate Abdul El-Sayed compared Israel to Iran. He called El-Sayed's campaign rhetoric "100% disqualifying" for the Senate.
- El-Sayed's association with political streamer Hasan Piker drew sharp criticism from Turkish, who called Piker's comments supporting 9/11 "disqualifying." Turkish also criticized fundraising appeals he claimed blame Jews for domestic funding shortages.
- At a Republican Jewish Coalition event Wednesday, Turkish explained his decision publicly, telling Jewish Insider he "couldn't live with myself if I didn't speak up" about his opposition to El-Sayed.
- El-Sayed spokeswoman Roxie Richner dismissed the criticism, stating "Abdul is focused on building a broad coalition to win Michigan and win back the Senate majority for Democrats." The race remains closely watched.
