Egyptian-born doctor eyes U.S. Senate
The Democratic Party candidate in Michigan, Egyptian-American doctor Abdel Rahman El-Sayed, has announced his campaign to become the first Muslim elected to the United States Senate. He faced a tough competition against House member Haley Stevens. El-Sayed is vying to succeed Senator Gary Peters and will face former Republican candidate Mike Rogers, who is supported by Trump, in the general election. His victory would be historic, as he would be the first Muslim elected to the U.S. Senate. His campaign focuses on issues such as rising healthcare costs and housing, with political opposition to America's foreign policies in Gaza. The election is also seen as a test of the strength of the "New Democratic Left" movement ahead of the midterm elections.
