However, during the election campaign, El-Sayed faced attacks over his religious identity. Republican leaders, including President Donald Trump, repeatedly targeted him over his Muslim identity.

He was even accused of having links to extremism. However, El-Sayed rejected these allegations.

Earlier, he secured the opportunity to contest the general election by competing in the Democratic Party's primary election. He eventually won the Senate seat by defeating his Republican opponent.

Donald Trump won Michigan by a narrow margin in the 2024 presidential election.

Abdul El-Sayed will take office as a senator when the new Congress begins its session next January. Through this, he will become the first Muslim to serve in the US Senate, the upper chamber of the country's Congress.
