El-Sayed warns that outside groups 'are trying to buy a vote in the U.S. Senate'
Abdul El-Sayed said Friday that more outside money has been spent against him in Michigan’s Democratic senatorial primary “than ever” has been spent against a candidate, warning that allies of Israel, Big Pharma and AI are trying to buy the Senate seat. El-Sayed is hammering home his argument that the race is boiling down to the “money versus the many.” He said more than $58 million has been spent on behalf of Ms. Stevens, with the lion’s share coming from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, the most powerful pro-Israel lobby in Washington.
