Democrat Abdul El-Sayed has won election to the U.S. Senate representing Michigan, defeating Republican Mike Rogers, according to reports from NPR and Al Jazeera.
The victory makes El-Sayed the first Muslim American to serve in the chamber, according to NPR, which noted that his bid served as a test of an antiestablishment progressive in a key Midwestern battleground. Following the win, El-Sayed delivered an impassioned speech concluding a race that Al Jazeera reported was marked by a turbulent final stretch and anti-Muslim rhetoric from prominent Republicans.

Shared reporting

- Al Jazeera emphasized the Islamophobia El-Sayed faced from top Republicans and the turbulent final stretch of the campaign leading up to his victory speech.
Why it matters
