The Western Journal published the story and video coverage. Short answer: false &#8211; Gaza does not, and cannot, have a U.S. senator, and chanting by a candidate\u2019s supporters does not make a foreign territory \u201ctheir\u201d senator.<\/p>\n<p>Why:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; U.S. senators are elected to represent U.S. states (or, in a few cases, territories) and must be U.S. officials listed on the official Senate roster. Gaza is a Palestinian territory, not part of the United states, so it cannot be represented in the U.S. Senate.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Abdul El\u2011Sayed is not a U.S. senator. (if you want, I can pull up his current office\/candidacy status and official election results.)<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Supporters chanting slogans about Gaza or Palestine at an event is an expression of political opinion or solidarity. It does not change the legal or constitutional status of depiction, nor does it make Gaza a constituency of the United States.<\/p>\n<p>If you want, I can:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Review the Western Journal article and the video you mentioned (paste a link) and check context and accuracy;<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Pull official sources (Senate roster, Michigan election results, news outlets) to confirm Abdul El\u2011Sayed\u2019s current elected status. <br \/> <br \/>\n    Read more&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Well, Gaza has its first member of the U.S. Senate. Oh, sure, Abdul El-Sayed is nominally supposed to represent Michigan. That\u2019s what voters elected him to do on Tuesday.
