Vance says El-Sayed has no ‘constituency among the working class’
JD Vance said Abdul El-Sayed won on support from white liberals, not working-class voters, after the Democrat beat Haley Stevens by less than 1 percentage point.
- On Wednesday, Vice President J.D. Vance dismissed Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed as one of "these DSA types" during a Fox News interview, claiming his primary victory resulted from "self-hating white liberals."
