Abdul El-Sayed has made history in winning the closely watched US Senate race in Michigan, defeating the Republican Mike Rogers and becoming the country’s first Muslim senator.

“We can defeat the cynicism of a politics that preys on our earnestness, undersells our intelligence, and exploits our disagreements. Tonight, Michigan, we beat a machine.”
