Summary

In Wayne County, Arab American precincts rejected Kamala Harris, with Biden receiving 82% of the vote in 2020 and Harris only 23% in 2024.

Trump’s outreach to Arab American and Muslim communities, including visits to Dearborn and Hamtramck, contributed to his increased support.

Harris’s performance in Dearborn, where she received only 13% of the vote in the south end, reflects the backlash against Biden’s handling of foreign policy in the Middle East.

        You can’t even bring yourself to admit that the announcement of extending the kind of carpet bombing we’ve seen in Gaza to the West Bank is a bad thing.

            It’s bad news, not bad faith. You still can’t bring yourself to admit that Trump winning is a disaster for Palestine.
