Democrats are turning on congressional candidate Melissa Chaudhry after she allegedly concealed her LGBTQ+ positions from Muslim voters, exposing a volatile fault line inside the Democratic coalition ahead of the midterms.
The clash, framed by Fox News as an intra-party meltdown, centers on accusations that Chaudhry hid her stances on LGBTQ+ issues from Muslim voters — a constituency both parties have increasingly courted. The allegations threaten to deepen an already raw Democratic civil war that House Republicans have signaled they intend to weaponize in the midterms.
