Michigan progressive^+^ here. Not particularly. I read this as a shallow attempt by El-Sayed to use her reach to push his message and a doomed attempt by Harris to use El-Sayed to launder her reputation with the left. El-Sayed likely sees that he will come out ahead, but its not a moment to he proud of. Mostly a waste of time instead of campaigning with Donovan McKinney, save for the fact multiple days worth of articles are being posted about the one event I guess...
