MI-SEN: Mysterious pro-Israel-linked group spends $5.3M to boost Haley Stevens (D)

A mysterious political group using a media-buying firm tied to pro-Israel spending is pouring more than $5.3 million into ads boosting U.S. Rep. Haley Stevens in Michigan’s Democratic primary for U.S. Senate, raising fresh questions about whether Zionist donors are trying to shape the race from the shadows.

The group, the Center for Democratic Priorities Inc., placed the ad buy in the Detroit, Grand Rapids, Flint, Lansing, and Traverse City media markets. The ads are scheduled to run from May 9 through May 31.

The ad campaign comes days after the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) sent fundraising emails promoting Stevens and Republican U.S. Sen. Susan Collins of Maine, while attacking El-Sayed and Graham Platner, Collins’s Democratic challenger.

The Center for Democratic Priorities bought the airtime through Waterfront Strategies, a media-buying firm that has worked with AIPAC-affiliated super PACs, including United Democracy Project.

on all sides. Money have become the heart beat of USA politics because it controls the status quo.

But at this point in time, the people have the power. Vote.
