A record number of Muslims were elected to Congress this week VERBATIM: Seven in all — six to the House of Representatives and one — Michigan Democrat Abdul El-Sayed — to the Senate. In fact, El-Sayed is the first Muslim EVER to win a seat in the Senate. At the state level, scores of Muslim candidates ran and many of them won office. Followers of Islam represent a small slice of the U.S. population, however — 1.6%, or about 5.5 million people. They live mostly in New York, New Jersey and California.
