REPORT: Jewish Democrat Donors Plan to Bankroll Republican if El-Sayed Wins Primary

A report by the Jewish Telegraphic Agency reveals that some Jewish Democrat donors in Metro Detroit are considering supporting Republican candidate Mike Rogers if far-left Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed wins the Democratic primary in Michigan. These donors, including prominent figures in the Jewish community, express concern over the direction of the Democratic Party and prioritize issues such as antisemitism, Judaism, and support for Israel over party loyalty. They plan to fundraise for Rogers or potentially vote for him if El-Sayed secures the nomination. El-Sayed, who has expressed skepticism toward Israel's status as a Jewish state, faces criticism from Jewish donors who argue his views conflict with traditional pro-Israel positions. Some donors have reportedly sought introductions to Rogers through social activities like golf. Prominent Jewish backers of El-Sayed, such as former Rep. Andy Levin, dismiss claims of abandonment by Jewish Democrats, attributing the controversy to hardline pro-Israel donors.

Exclusive -- Mike Rogers: ‘We’re a Working-Class State; Common Sense Is Going to Win the Day’

Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers, running in Michigan, claims that internal divisions within the Democratic primary and his campaign's extensive grassroots efforts position him to win the state in November. He criticizes both Democratic contenders—Rep. Haley Stevens and Dr. Abdul El-Sayed—for supporting progressive policies such as electric vehicle mandates, higher taxes, and allowing male athletes to compete in women's sports, calling these positions 'out of touch.' Rogers frames the race as a battle between 'common sense' and 'craziness,' asserting that Michigan's working-class voters will favor his approach. His campaign emphasizes door-to-door canvassing and traditional voter contact methods, claiming they are more effective than digital strategies used by Washington-based politicians.

In August 2026, more than a dozen states hold primary elections, intensifying the midterm cycle. Key races include Michigan's Senate contest, where Democrats face off between centrist Rep. Haley Stevens and progressive Abdul El-Sayed, both vying to challenge GOP nominee Mike Rogers. The race is seen as a bellwether for Democratic strategy post-2024 losses. In South Carolina, newly appointed Sen. Darline Graham, replacing her late brother Lindsey Graham, faces competition in a special primary, despite Trump's endorsement. Other notable races involve governors and House seats, with fundraising trends and polling data shaping voter dynamics.
