Claim 2: “he and Haley Stevens remain neck and neck with votes still being counted”
DISPUTED
The claim states that El-Sayed and Stevens are 'neck and neck' with votes still being counted. However, the evidence provided directly contradicts this: Flipboard reports that Abdul El-Sayed 'won a close Democratic Senate primary in Michigan,' and Wikipedia explicitly states that he 'is the Democratic nominee in the 2026 United States Senate election in Michigan,' indicating the race has already been decided.
