Jewish Democrats in Michigan are crossing party lines to back Republican Mike Rogers in the Senate race against Abdul El-Sayed — and the math could be devastating for Democrats. Rogers lost his last Senate bid by under 20,000 votes. Michigan has roughly 70,000 Jewish voters. Republican strategists say if a majority flip, that's a potential 100,000-vote swing in a race Democrats must hold to have any shot at retaking the Senate majority. An open letter is now circulating among Jewish leaders urging Democrats and independents to support Rogers, with one organizer calling it a "do-or-die moment" driven by what they describe as an "anti-Jewish drift" in the party. El-Sayed's associations with controversial streamer Hasan Piker, his use of the word "bloodthirsty" to describe Israel's military operations, and his repeated refusal to directly answer whether Israel has the right to exist, have fueled the backlash. https://x.com/foxnewspolitics/status/2091118952273555697?s=46&t=gT6uLhaVod8uwzT4p6povA
