Why we’re leaving El-Sayed’s spot on the ballot blank | Opinion [from democratic party members] (eu.detroitnews.com)

This is what the democratic party members Lon Johnson, a former Michigan Democratic Party chair, and David Kramer, a longtime Democratic strategist who has previously helped elect Democrats to the Senate, say after their candidate lost. Both supported Rep. Haley Stevens (per https://eu.detroitnews.com/story/opinion/columnists/nolan-finley/2026/10/16/dem-leaders-urge-party-to-vote-none-of-the-above-in-senate-race-finley/92269640007/). These are the people that would rally "party unity" to ensure a republican defeat if their zionist candidate had won. Despicable.

They’re very upset that the electorate doesn’t support the genocide of Palestinians. Lon Johnson and David Kramer can go fuck all the way off. Join the GOP if the denunciation of Zionist racism is so abhorrent to you.
