Stevens's Fiancé Says He Will Vote for Rogers Over El-Sayed in Michigan Senate Race
Jason Turkish, fiancé of Rep. Haley Stevens, said he would support Republican Mike Rogers over Abdul El-Sayed and accused El-Sayed of antisemitic language on the campaign trail, according to The Hill.
Jason Turkish, the fiancé of Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Mich.), said this week that he would support Republican candidate Mike Rogers over Stevens's former Democratic primary rival, Abdul El-Sayed, in Michigan's Senate race, according to a report in The Hill.
The Hill reported that Turkish made the statements in an interview published Wednesday, in which he accused El-Sayed of using antisemitic language on the campaign trail. The report was credited to reporter Sarah Davis.
The Hill quoted Turkish as saying, "We have never seen a candidate for U.S." The report's summary cuts off that sentence, so the full wording of his remarks is not available for this account.
The Hill's account did not say whether El-Sayed or his campaign had responded to the accusation, whether Stevens had commented on her fiancé's remarks, or when the accusation was made.
The Hill's summary identifies Haley Stevens as a Democrat from Michigan and names Mike Rogers as the Republican candidate in that race. It describes Stevens and El-Sayed as rivals in the Democratic primary.
The Hill's listing shows the report was published on October 28, 2026.
