Karen Whitsett is a Democrat State Representative in Michigan. Tonight, she appeared on the Laura Ingraham show and predicted that far left Democrat Abdul El-Sayed will lose the election in November.
For her own reasons for opposing El-Sayed, Whitsett brought up healthcare, and more specifically health insurance, which she fears she would lose under the ‘Medicare for All’ policy being pushed by El-Sayed.
Whitsett also explained that there is an ongoing tension between the black and Arab communities in Michigan, which she suggests is driven by racism in the Arab community.

WHITSETT: “I am using basic common sense, Laura thank you for having me. It is important that people realize that there comes a time that you have to say I need the one thing that is going to make me vote for someone. And that one thing that makes me vote for Mike Rogers, me and my husband, his health insurance.”

This is not the first time that Whitsett has spoken out against El-Sayed.
This report from FOX News is from last month:
Socialist politicians are ‘more racist than the KKK,’ says Black Dem official urging voters to ditch El-Sayed
An elected Democratic official in Michigan is rallying her community against U.S. Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed and claims those within the socialist rise of her party take Black voters for granted.
“It doesn’t change, it’s just different slave owners,” Democratic Michigan state Rep. Karen Whitsett told Fox News Digital in reference to Democratic Party leaders who believe Black voters are a monolith who should only support left-wing candidates.
She claimed that El-Sayed is not working in the best interest of Black Michiganders and that the far-left wing of her party is “more racist than the KKK.”…
“You can see the serious divide of the crazy socialist far-left and especially the White women,” Whitsett said. “They are the worst and the most racist that there possibly ever could be. They’re, I think, they’re more racist than the KKK.”
This explains what we saw during the Democrat primary race in Michigan where black voters did not show up for El-Sayed.
