‘They blew it’: Democrats lost 22,000 votes in Michigan’s heavily Arab American cities
Trump’s courting of Arab American voters and the Biden-Harris Gaza policy turned votes away from the Democrat
Kamala Harris received at least 22,000 fewer votes than Joe Biden did four years ago in Michigan’s most heavily Arab American and Muslim cities, a Guardian analysis of raw vote data in the critical swing state finds.
The numbers also show Trump made small gains – about 9,000 votes – across those areas, suggesting Harris’s loss there is more attributable to Arab Americans either not voting or casting ballots for third-party candidates.
