Abdul El-Sayed overcomes massive AIPAC spending to win Michigan primary
Abdul El-Sayed overcame a record $30 million in AIPAC spending to defeat pro-Israel candidate Haley Stevens in Michigan. The race was widely viewed as a referendum on the political influence of the Israel lobby.
That’s really interesting about the impact of AIPAC money on the race. It highlights how important local support can be, especially in a competitive primary.
