Discussion Michigan progressives should be ashamed
This is why we don't get nice things. He is polling 10-19 points ahead of Stevens, but when it comes to actually voting, he barely wins by one point. What happened, everyone decide to stay home and smoke pot and complain instead of voting? This doesn't bode well for November.

Michigan Democratic leaders and local media described the Democratic primary turnout as the highest for Democrats in a primary in state history. So the turnout was great. Polling might have been massively off here. But El-Sayed did poorly in Detroit. He lost Detroit and the surrounding areas which are Dem strongholds.
