And then there’s the Michigan race for the Senate
The red-green alliance seems to have taken over the Michigan Democrat Party and is poised for primary victory:
Leftists are now giddy with the latest poll results coming out of Michigan, which indicate that another Muslim socialist appears to be running away with the Democrat nomination for U.S. Senate.
Slate’s senior politics editor, Jim Newell, in his newsletter to readers, said:
“The most-watched Senate primary in the country finally concludes this coming Tuesday, as Michigan Democrats choose between progressive insurgent Adbul El-Sayed and moderate Rep. Haley Stevens to go against GOP former Rep. Mike Rogers this fall… If El-Sayed wins, it would be a shocking change in Democratic politics, with typically cautious Democratic voters nominating a leftist in a critical purple-state Senate race. And then we would just have to see how that would go in November! If he were to win the general, it would prompt more risk-taking from Democratic primary voters down the road. If he were to lose, Democratic voters would quickly revert to nominating cyborg ex-Marine prosecutors selected by Chuck Schumer.
Yes, this is a test case to see whether a far-leftist Israel-hating Muslim can win statewide in a state that’s somewhat blue but not entirely so. As such, Michigan is perfectly positioned for the test, and El-Sayed is the perfect candidate as well. Michigan Democrats who support El-Sayed have two big things going for them in this sort of contest: it is the state with the highest Muslim percentage of residents of a state that isn’t already deep deep blue (see this list), and the GOP is organizationally weak there and the Democrats have control of the voting apparatus in large cities.
I offer this recent poll with the caveat that it might be designed and manipulated to motivate Stevens voters (Stevens is El-Sayed’s Democrat opponent in the primary) to vote tomorrow. But it indicates that Stevens has a better chance than El-Sayed to beat Mike Rogers, the Republican candidate:
In the EPIC-MRA poll, 44 percent of respondents said they would cast their ballot for Stevens or would consider doing so if the election happened that day, and 42 percent said the same of Rogers. Fourteen percent were not sure about their preferred candidate or did not give a response.
In contrast, 46 percent of respondents said they would back or were considering backing Rogers, while 43 percent said the same of El-Sayed.
The margin of error for the poll is 4 percentage points, so the results for both Democratic candidates against Rogers are within that margin.
Sort of a garbage poll, but there it is. Note also the large number of “undecideds.” How anyone can be undecided at this point is beyond me. The contrasts could not be more stark.
Dearborn is, as you probably know, the epicenter of the red-green movement in Michigan – the first Arab-majority city in the US.
They will probably win as Michigan sure looks like a fraud voting state
I’m half hoping El-Sayed wins the primary, for the reason mentioned, that Rogers stands a better chance in the general against him. As your link shows, Muslims are only 2.4% of the population in Michigan, which while potentially decisive in a close vote, it’s overall pretty small. For what it’s worth, the Jewish population in Michigan is 1.3%, and while they may be mostly Democrats, I don’t think most will vote for El-Sayed. Of course this assumes only a small margin of fraud, which may not be realistic in Michigan.
The leftists believe they can make common cause with the moslems in order to overthrow their common enemy, normal Americans. This may be true, but what the leftists forget is that there can only be one king and the moslems will not tolerate any competition. There is no god but allah, remember?
I live in the upper peninsula, which is more like Alaska than Detroit.
Lower peninsula fraud can reach twenty percent, depending on the election.
It’s a certainty that El-Sayed will be the Democrat Party nominee, and there’s a very real chance of a Muslim, Jew-hating communist being elected to the Senate.
Shudder and shame.
Jimmy- although Muslims may only be 2.4% of the population in Michigan, I’m betting that their turnout will be enormously higher than the rest of the state. That and the large margin of fraud here has me nervous. Since Michigan is a crossover state for voting in the primaries, I have talked to some republican friends who are planning to vote for El-Sayed in the primary, thinking that he would be easier to beat than Stevens in the general election. But I’m afraid that kind of thinking could come back to haunt us.
Chris B: I hear you. I remember feeling the same way when Obama got the nomination over Hillary in 2008 (that he had little chance of winning). That’s why I said “half hoping.” But Obama at least pretended to be moderate and a uniter, and duped a lot of moderates into supporting him. El-Sayed thinks he can pull a Mamdani in a state that went for Trump in both 2016 and 2024. I’m skeptical, and hoping that all these extremist nominees will reflect badly on the Democrats and pull more voters to the Republicans nationwide. We’ll see.
I know a few–mostly because I don’t prospect–people who wouldn’t have bought into the America deserved 9-11 thing. Until a democrat said it in a campaign Now they believe it. Or pretend to. Or pretend to, to themselves. Not a few other nonsenses going the same way with people like them,

He is not happy.

Presumably, most members think this is a good idea. And those who join do so because of it, or not minding. To the extent there are any professors who disagree, they won’t be joining. Not sure that makes much difference in membership. But reputation outside the group will fade. Will use up accumulated credibility, sooner or later, and with this list of choices, probably faster.
