Abdul El-Sayed has become the Democratic nominee for Michigan’s U.S. Senate race, setting up a general election against Republican Mike Rogers. His win has drawn both celebration and a wave of anti-Muslim attacks, which he and Muslim advocacy groups say reflect fear and Islamophobia. He is also facing scrutiny over more than 100 deleted YouTube videos, while prominent Democrats like Gavin Newsom have campaigned with him and Barack Obama has been discussed as a possible supporter.
