MI-SEN: Mallory McMorrow (D) sounds alarm on her party's antisemitism after Jewish husband targeted [View all]

Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Mallory McMorrow said during a debate Thursday that her party has a problem with antisemitism, citing an incident in which her Jewish husband was targeted with a slur while walking with their daughter.

Asked directly whether antisemitism exists within the Democratic Party, McMorrow answered, “There is.”

“At the Democratic convention, an attendee yelled an antisemitic slur at my husband, who is Jewish and was walking with my 5-year-old daughter. That is terrifying,” McMorrow said.

The remarks came during a televised debate on Mackinac Island among the three leading Democrats seeking the nomination for Michigan’s open US Senate seat: McMorrow, US Rep. Haley Stevens and former Detroit health director Abdul El-Sayed.
