Michigan Senate Hopeful Calls Himself a ‘Physician’
Politico said no Michigan or New York license records matched El-Sayed, even as a new poll showed him leading the Democratic field with 28% support.
- A new poll released Monday by Mitchell Research and Communications shows former public health official Abdul El-Sayed leading Michigan's Democratic U.S. Senate primary with 28% support among 405 likely voters surveyed.
- Criticism surrounding El-Sayed's campaign with streamer Hasan Piker failed to resonate, as voters ignored the controversy promoted by centrist think tank Third Way and his rivals.
- Among voters aged 18-44, El-Sayed commands 80% support, bolstered by an endorsement from Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, who appeared at a rally attended by 1,360 supporters.
- Ahead of the August 4 primary, a separate poll released Tuesday indicates Republican Mike Rogers leads potential head-to-head general election matchups against El-Sayed and other Democratic candidates.
- Policy platforms like Medicare for All will likely center campaign efforts moving forward, as the proposal is supported by 78% of Democratic voters nationwide.
