TL;DR Summary

A centrist Democratic pro-Israel group is running an ad campaign in Michigan to persuade voters to support Biden and not choose the "uncommitted" slot on their Democratic Party primary ballots, warning that doing so would help Donald Trump. The group's efforts are part of a wider pro-Israel push to unseat members of Congress who criticize Israel's actions in Gaza. Organizers of the "uncommitted" campaign aim to send a warning to Biden and the Democratic Party about dissatisfaction with his stance on Israel's war on Gaza, particularly among Michigan's Middle Eastern and North African residents. The state's 15 electoral votes are crucial for Biden's reelection, and polls indicate a tight race, with Trump winning in several tests. The "vote uncommitted" push has the backing of various state officials, including Mayor Abdullah Hammoud of Dearborn and state House Majority Leader Rep. Abraham Aiyash.
