State Campaigns Confront Antisemitism From the Right

Two state-level campaigns are confronting right-coded antisemitism: screenshots attributed to the son and former campaign worker of Maryland gubernatorial nominee Dan Cox contain explicit anti-Jewish and anti-Israel abuse, while a New York attorney general candidate publicized a meeting with a sect documented for antisemitic myths.

Also tracking: Sen. Chris Murphy’s Doha meetings as U.S.-Iran diplomacy stalls, and an Israeli election in which tied blocs and the Haredi draft dispute are narrowing coalition options.

In the wire: 262 anti-Israel events identified around the October 7 anniversary, a cross-party New York endorsement centered on Israel and antisemitism, and Israel’s response to the British Greens’ anti-Zionist platform.
