El domingo, la congresista demócrata de Michigan, Haley Stevens, cambió su apoyo de un candidato demócrata a uno republicano, debido en gran medida a su respaldo a Israel; una decisión que podría determinar qué partido controla el Senado. En agosto, Stevens perdió la elección primaria demócrata del Senado frente al Doctor Abdul El-Sayed, que es crítico con Israel. Después, aunque Stevens es una defensora firme y comprometida de Israel, ella expresó su apoyo a El-Sayed, decisión que se esperaba con el fin de evitar que el republicano Mike Rogers resultara electo. Rogers, un partidario de la administración Trump, es racista e islamófobo, y se ha referido repetidamente a El-Sayed come "yihadista" debido a su nombre y a sus críticas hacia Israel. Una investigación reciente de Drop Site News reveló que dos miembros del equipo de Rogers son agentes israelíes, y son registrados como tales como es exigido por el gobierno federal. Los asientos del Senado cuyos resultados son inciertos determinarán qué partido lo controlará tras las elecciones del martes. Esto significa que la decisión de Stevens de respaldar a Rogers podría dar control del Senado a la administración Trump con el fin de proteger a Israel. On Sunday, Michigan Democratic Congressmember Haley Stevens switched her endorsement from a Democrat to a Republican largely due to her support of Israel, and her decision could decide control of the US Senate. In August, Stevens lost the Democratic Senate Primary to Doctor Abdul El-Sayed, who is critical of Israel. Although she is a strong and committed supporter of Israel, she endorsed El-Sayed after her loss, as was expected in order to prevent Republican Mike Rogers from being elected. Rogers is a racist and Islamophobic supporter of the Trump administration, and has repeatedly referred to El-Sayed as a "jihadist" due to his name and his criticism of Israel. Recent reporting by Drop Site News showed that two of Rogers' staff members are Israeli agents, and are registered as such, as is required by the federal government. The Senate seats with unpredictable outcomes will decide which party controls the US Senate after Tuesday's elections, which means that Stevens' decision to switch her endorsement to Rogers could give control of the Senate to the Trump administration in order to protect Israel.
