WATCH: Michiganders Flood 1-844-ABDUL-4-U Hotline
MICHIGAN – One week ago, Dr. Abdul El-Sayed’s campaign launched 1-844-ABDUL-4-U. Since then, thousands of people from across the state have picked up the phone.
Today, the campaign released a new video featuring the voices of the Michiganders who called – not the political operatives, consultants, or billionaires trying to define this race, but the retirees, first-time voters, former Haley Stevens supporters, lifelong Democrats, Independents, and volunteers who simply wanted Abdul to know they believe in what he’s fighting for.
The video follows the campaign’s 15-second “1-844-ABDUL-4-U” ad, which invited viewers to call to hear about Abdul’s platform, receive voting information, listen to a message from Senator Bernie Sanders, or leave Abdul a message of their own.
Listen to the voices of Michigan here.
The phone line is still open. Call 1-844-ABDUL-4-U to hear more about Abdul’s platform or leave him a message.
VIDEO TRANSCRIPT:
Yo my name is Ray. Lisa. Nate. Jackie. Andrew. Melanie. Lucas. Michael. Kamonte.
I am from Muskegon, Michigan. Grand Rapids. Kentwood, Michigan. Menominee, Michigan. Lapeer County. Ann Arbor. Ypsilanti, Michigan. Farmington Hills. Detroit.
There’s no question in my mind that I will be voting for you.
I’m proud to say that for my first election, I’ll be voting for you.
You are one of the first political candidates that I ever knocked doors for.
I voted for Haley Stevens before, but for U.S. Senate, I’m voting for you.
It’s nice to know that people who are running for office are trying to make things easier for us.
What you’re doing is truly American.
We really need you.
It shouldn’t be this hard.
I just wanted you to know that, I love you Abdul, and we’re rooting for you.
Abdul, we got you. Couple more weeks, we’re going to get you across that line volunteering and helping out. We’re going to beat Mike Rogers in November, and we’re going to get you in that Senate.
Thank you very much for everything you’re doing. Take care, bye-bye.
