I would certainly support Gretchen Whitmer here, but Abdul runs a fine campaign and it is a good signal that a Muslim American at 33 can do so. Maybe Whitmer can tap him for lt. gov?

Whitmer will likely pick an African-American man for Lt. Governor, but I agree that El-Sayed has run a solid campaign and could have a real future in Michigan politics once he gets his residency issues sorted out. 

I could see him running for House or getting tapped as DHS Sec in the next Democratic administration.

Surely you mean HHS, not DHS? Though that is a stretch.

When El-Sayed likely loses, he'd do well to stay in Detroit and return to the private sector. He has plenty of time for his star to shine.

Yes, of course, lol.
