The Hill and three right-leaning outlets report that Jason Turkish, the fiancé of Rep. Haley Stevens, will vote for Republican Mike Rogers over Democrat Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan’s Senate race. Turkish, who describes himself as a lifelong Democrat, accuses El-Sayed of antisemitic language toward Jews and Israel, and says El-Sayed’s association with streamer Hasan Piker should disqualify him from receiving the Jewish vote. The Hill reports El-Sayed’s response that he is building a movement to take on Donald Trump and that voters with other priorities may choose differently.

What is contested

Where accounts differ

Points the coverage does not agree on, and who says what.

  • Abdul El-Sayed’s rhetoric toward Jews and Israel is antisemitic.

    Turkish says so, and right-side outlets report the accusation, with one headline calling the rhetoric anti-Israel instead. The Hill reports the accusation as Turkish’s and gives El-Sayed’s reply, which in the supplied text does not address the charge directly.
