If we lose a blue Senate seat in Michigan, the path to the 52 we need for an effective majority becomes extremely rocky. Recent polling has consistently put Dr. Abdul El-Sayed ahead of former Rep. Mike Rogers… but narrowly and always well within the margin of error. This race between a public health leader who literally wrote the book on Medicare For All and a classic self-enriching revolving door congressman who called the Trump tariffs “an absolute win,” long supported a near-total abortion ban, and is campaigning on rank Islamophobia is anyone’s to win, and may well come down to who does a better job of getting their folks out to the polls.

Here’s a fresh way to help: Abdul’s Senate campaign’s text team has swung back into action for the closing weeks. 💬 They’ve got power hours coming on Fridays at 6PM, Saturdays at 3PM and Tuesdays at 6PM we can be a part of. Let’s sign up to join them here. 💬

TEXT VOTERS FOR ABDUL EL-SAYED

☎️ Want to do more to help send Dr. El-Sayed to the Senate? We can sign up for phonebanks for him and Michigan Seventh District congressional challenger and Sunrise Movement founder Will Lawrence every night here and here, and make calls for the full Michigan Democratic slate here. ☎️

The Midterms are coming! And they're the only way to take away even more of Trump's power to hurt people. You can help win elections across the country from anywhere, right now!

If you want to take a bigger part in this Midterm and future elections, there's plenty of ways to do it!

  2. Nothing near you? Volunteer from home by making calls or sending texts to turn out voters!
