LOL...if that citizenship issue is the worst that El-Sayed can be 'charged' with, Michiganders have
nothing to worry about and should enthusiastically support this fine man.
Here's the background on Baron's "Gotcha" post...says a lot about Baron's ability to focus on truly important issues..i.e. he has none ;-)

AI Overview
Under Egyptian nationality law, a person born in wedlock to an Egyptian father is automatically an Egyptian citizen by descent, regardless of where they are born.
Eligibility and Law
• By Descent: Under Egyptian nationality rules (such as Law No. 26 of 1975), having an Egyptian father grants automatic citizenship by birth/descent.
• Abdul El-Sayed's Status: Abdul El-Sayed was born in Michigan to Egyptian immigrant parents, and his biological father (Mohamed El-Sayed) was an Egyptian citizen from Alexandria.
The Controversy and Campaign Response
• Past Statements: El-Sayed previously stated in a 2016 public appearance ("I carry dual citizenship") and listed dual U.S.–Egypt citizenship on an academic profile around 2013.
• Campaign Rebuttal: His campaign later clarified that those earlier claims were a mistake based on secondhand family information (such as what relatives or his grandfather told him) and that official documentation could not verify any active Egyptian citizenship. The campaign maintains that he is not and has never been a dual citizen by any verifiable metric
