Watch live: DDHQ, The Hill track primaries in Michigan, Virginia, Kansas, Missouri and Washington

Democratic primary elections are taking place in Michigan, Virginia, Kansas, Missouri, and Washington. In Michigan, two candidates are vying for the Democratic Senate nomination: Abdul El-Sayed and Representative Haley Stevens. According to The Hill, El-Sayed is a progressive, while Stevens is a moderate.

The Jerusalem Post reports that El-Sayed's campaign includes a pledge to end unconditional US military aid to Israel. Stevens, on the other hand, is backed by the Democratic establishment and pro-Israel groups. In Missouri, former Representative Cori Bush is seeking a comeback against Representative Wesley Bell, who defeated her two years ago with significant support from AIPAC.

The outcomes of these elections may indicate whether criticism of Israel has become a broader electoral force within the Democratic Party. The Democratic nominee in Michigan will face Republican Mike Rogers in the general election.
