    Jewish Democrats in Michigan Back Republican Mike Rogers Over Abdul El-Sayed

    Jewish Democrats in Michigan are crossing party lines to support Republican Mike Rogers in his Senate race against Abdul El-Sayed. Rogers, who lost his last Senate bid by fewer than 20,000 votes, is targeting Jewish voters uneasy with El-Sayed's vocal criticism of Israel and association with controversial streamer Hasan Piker. An open letter from Jewish leaders urging support for Rogers has circulated, with one organizer calling it a 'do-or-die moment' due to perceived 'anti-Jewish drift' in the Democratic Party. Rogers' campaign has asked AIPAC not to run ads supporting him, fearing backlash from voters angry over the war in Gaza.

TVK defended its position, stating that the meeting's agenda was broader and that its stand on delimitation remains unchanged.
