Former U.S. Rep. Beto ORourke (D-Texas) expressed support Friday for a campaign asking Democratic voters unhappy with President Joe Bidens handling of the Israel-Hamas war to vote uncommitted in Michigans Democratic presidential primary on Tuesday.

I do think it makes sense for those who want to see this administration do more, or do a better job, to exert that political pressure and get the presidents attention and the attention of those on his campaign so that the United States does better, ORourke said in a Friday interview with the Michigan Advance.

ORourke said he read an opinion piece by Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud endorsing the campaign that was published in the New York Times this week, which he said was well-written and well-argued. The campaign has also been endorsed by U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Detroit) and former U.S. Rep. Andy Levin (D-Bloomfield Twp.).

Not a huge flip considering Beto hasn't done anything of note since 2018 but it does demonstrate some of the moderate bench backing pressure on Biden over the Gaza situation. Considering the large Islamic bloc in Michigan I am interested to see how things shake out.
