Gaza War Reshapes Michigan Democratic Primary as AIPAC Backs Stevens

Super PACs linked to AIPAC have spent over $16 million backing congresswoman Haley Stevens in Michigan's Democratic Senate primary—an unusually large sum for a race of this size. The spending reflects how the Israel-Gaza conflict has upended Democratic primaries. Stevens' opponent, progressive Abdul El-Sayed, has refused to affirm Israel's right to exist as a Jewish state, a defining issue in the race.
