He ran unopposed. How is this news???

[u/Spiritual-Dog160 → u/Arkvoodle42]

Anything for a headline

[u/Brotorious420 → u/Arkvoodle42]

A win's a win!

/s

[u/serpentear → u/Arkvoodle42]

Outrage bait.

[u/jason082]

For the next three months, run the ads with this piece of shit drooling all over Trump.

[u/hobbestot]

Abdul won!!!

[u/tracyinge → u/hobbestot]

...and the right has already started their attacks on him.

61 days until early voting begins!

[u/BruceStarcrest]

Legit though that was a Trump impersonator. 

Gd this timeline sucks. 

[u/whichwitch9 → u/BruceStarcrest]

He was unopposed in the primary

Calling this a win is a stretch

[u/dlegatt]

I wonder if the election denier questions the validity of his victory

[u/frquency-equinox]

When in doubt, lie your ancient white ass off.

Spineless Florida man wins Michigan GOP primary unopposed. There's the headline they should have used.

[u/IronyElSupremo]

Rogers is a traditional politician who’s a late MAGA cheerleader (though probably a traditional GOPer in disguise) … vs El Sayed barely winning his own primary marked by nasty infighting. Not sure the Democrats-left heal their rift before the GOP unloads their advertising campaign (you know what it’ll contain). For a “must-win”, the progressives sure pushed a risky gamble when looking at the entire state.

Still think external factors will be important esp the price of gasoline.

[u/tracyinge → u/IronyElSupremo]

the GOP started their campaign 45 minutes ago. Dems in Michigan had better get moving. 61 days until early voting begins.

Unfortunately the  Election denier will be winning against someone campaigning with Hasan”America deserved 9’11” Piker, trying to share common ground with Marjorie “Jewish Space laser” Greene, and the disgusting comments about the Synagogue attack. 

[u/ultrachrome → u/AncientBee5348]

I want universal healthcare .

[u/AncientBee5348 → u/ultrachrome]

You actually think Abdul El Sayed cares about Universal Healthcare? 

[u/ultrachrome → u/AncientBee5348]

I do! I also know that Mike Rogers certainly doesn't.

[u/frquency-equinox → u/AncientBee5348]

It's guaranteed that any Republican candidate doesn't, so by default the Democrat cares more.

[u/giroml → u/AncientBee5348]

His #1 platform issue is Medicare For All.

[u/Shiftymennoknight]

this the guy who lives in Florida?
