Two prominent critics of Israel have been elected to the U.S. House of Representatives, bolstering the progressive wing of the Democratic party, according to Decision Desk HQ. In New Jersey, Adam Hamaoui, a former military doctor who treated casualties in Gaza and advocates for ending all military aid to Israel, including Iron Dome funding, secured a victory. In Pennsylvania, Chris Rabb was elected; he calls for an arms embargo on Israel and previously shared a conspiracy theory on social media alleging that the Bondi Beach attack in Australia was staged by Zionists, though he later disavowed this, attributing it to a former employee.
As of now, Democrats have secured 52 seats in the House of Representatives, compared to 23 for Republicans.
