In deleted tweets, Senate candidate Mallory McMorrow disparaged Middle America
The campaign says the deletions were routine as McMorrow faces a tight three-way race and renewed questions about her past residency and voting history.
- On Wednesday, Michigan State Senator Mallory McMorrow revealed an activist screamed an antisemitic slur at her husband in front of their 5-year-old daughter during this month's Democratic Party convention in Detroit.
- A CNN KFile investigation revealed McMorrow deleted roughly 6,000 social media posts after launching her Senate campaign, resurfacing past comments disparaging 'Middle America' and raising questions about her residency timeline.
- McMorrow wrote in her 2025 autobiography that she 'relocated permanently' to Michigan in 2014, yet deleted tweets show she voted in California through mid-2016, contradicting her campaign's residency claims.
- Spokeswoman Hannah Lindow defended the deletions as 'normal tweets by a normal person,' though the controversy complicates McMorrow's primary race against Rep. Haley Stevens and Abdul El-Sayed.
- With the August primary approaching, the incident and digital cleanup threaten to erode Jewish voter support and complicate McMorrow's centrist positioning in a dead-heat race for one of the nation's pivotal Senate seats.
