Stevens v El-Sayed still not called, polling in this race was . . . EXTREMELY MISLEADING

Was that on purpose?

Did half of Gen Z lie again?

Or are the pollsters simply incompetent like most of the people seeking to govern us?

 

 

 

This idiot Scott McKay calls Haley Stevens Heather, doesn't call on Michigan Republicans even at the last hour to vote for her in the Democrat primary to save Democrats from themselves

That's the only way this works, unless you just want to rest on the platitude that you can vote yourself into socialism but you’ve got to shoot your way out, which apparently he does.

Today is election day. These people have been silent until now.

The socialists are serious. No one else is.

If you can't bring yourself to vote for Stevens, there isn't a snowball's chance in hell that you would ever pull a trigger. 

 You Simply Cannot Give Power to Lunatics

... [Hasan] Piker is also stumping for Abdul El-Sayed, who is now as much as a 15-point favorite over the more establishmentarian Heather Stevens in the Michigan Senate race. El-Sayed comes from an accomplished academic background and has apparently made a lot of money based on the properties he and his wife own, but we don’t know how he managed it. He’s an avowed DSA socialist whose speeches and pronouncements contain open rejections of the American founding and way of life, and it doesn’t seem to bother Michigan Democrat voters in the least. 

Because Michigan Democrats, like Wisconsin Democrats, are now made up of a majority of lunatics who think that abandoning American culture, economics, and politics and putting people like Francesca Hong and Abdul El-Sayed, not to mention Darieliza Avila Chevalier and Zohran Mamdani, in positions of power will create something better. ...

Democratic Senate candidates sling mud in post-debate spin room 

 ... “Standing up for Michiganders when their jobs were on the line during the Great Recession, standing up for Michiganders when their jobs were on the line yet again during COVID and the COVID pandemic and securing our manufacturing supply chain. I work to get things done. I am not trying to be a celebrity or famous or to sell a book or to push a podcast. I’m also not a millionaire like Abdul is. I am a hard-working gal who rolls up my sleeves, fights like heck for Michigan and delivers for us.” ...

Tom Bevan of Real Clear Politics spews nonsense about Michigan's U.S. Senate contest

 

A 2010-Style Disaster Brewing for Dems in Michigan

Tom Bevan, RealClearPolitics

 

He thinks the Democrat candidates for U.S. Senate in Michigan are analogous to "the questionable, untested" losing candidates Sharron Angle in Nevada and Christine O'Donnell in Delaware whom the GOP ran in 2010.

 

OK Tom. Have another drink. 

 

Haley Stevens is hardly questionable or untested.

 

She is a centrist, pro-Israel Democrat committed to the U.S. auto industry who has been elected four times to represent MI-11 in Oakland County.

 

Yes, the two progressives running against her look questionable and untested, even crazy.

 

But Stevens is a serious, normal candidate with a great record whom Democrats can run to beat Mike Rogers.

 

I think that's why Bevan doesn't really want to talk about her, and slaps her instead with the broad brush he's using to diss the progressives, as if she were guilty by association.

 

Not good form, old boy. 

Democrat primary slugfest in Michigan for retiring US Senator Gary Peters' seat features three candidates unfamiliar to a third of Democrats, giving opportunistic Republican Mike Rogers another shot

... Each unofficially represents an ideological faction. El-Sayed is the Democratic Socialists’ candidate, backed by Senator Bernie Sanders and supportive of single-payer health care. McMorrow is the progressive populist, backed by Senator Elizabeth Warren and supportive of a public health insurance option. Stevens is the moderate, tacitly backed by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, and, while nominally supportive of a public option, doesn’t lean into it nor mention it on her website’s issues page. 

And as I covered last week, the three are divided on Israel. El-Sayed would end all military aid to Israel (in fact, he “opposes directly funding foreign militaries” everywhere). McMorrow would stop selling Israel offensive weapons and has the support of the “pro-Israel, pro-peace” J Street PAC. Stevens defines herself as a “proud pro-Israel Democrat,” and is backed by AIPAC PAC. 

... Moreover, every poll taken pegs at least one-third of the primary electorate as undecided. The Glengariff Group poll shows at least 40 percent of Democrats “never heard” of any of them (for McMorrow, it’s 60 percent), and that number is probably higher among the general electorate. The more they attack each other, the more voters will be introduced to them in the worst possible way. ...

More. 

Stevens is the obvious choice of Michigan voters who are put off by the extremism of the Democratic left. She will complement Michigan's other moderate Senator Elissa Slotkin and help Democrats speak with one clear voice for sensible policies for Michigan workers.
