Abdul for U.S. Senate

Help us close the gap ➡️

Ad copy

It’s Dr. Abdul El-Sayed – I have a big update on the state of the U.S. Senate race in Michigan ☝🏼 The National Republican Senatorial Committee just released a poll of Michigan’s Senate Democratic primary. They’re already spending big to gauge our momentum — and figure out how to shut us down. But that same poll puts us just two points behind the AIPAC-backed frontrunner in this race. That result sends a message: our people-powered movement is real, and we’re within striking distance. We’ve gotten this far without a dime of corporate PAC money. But to close the gap, counter the flood of dark money, and win this race, we need to show up — together. Can you rush a donation today to help us close the gap and maintain our momentum? Let’s prove that a people-powered campaign can take on the political establishment and win.
