Arab American Voter Shift in Michigan Poses Challenge for Kamala Harris

Donald Trump gains unexpected support from Arab American leaders, potentially influencing the outcome in a key swing state.

Dearborn, Michigan, with a significant Arab and Muslim population, sees many voters reconsidering their traditional Democratic support.
Several prominent Muslim leaders, including mayors from Dearborn Heights and Hamtramck, have endorsed Donald Trump, citing his stance on Middle East peace and economic issues.
A YouGov poll shows Trump leading Harris among Arab American voters nationally, a demographic that historically favored Democrats.
Dearborn's Mayor Abdullah Hammoud, a Democrat, has chosen not to endorse any candidate, expressing dissatisfaction with current Democratic policies on Middle Eastern affairs.
The shift in Arab American voter support could be pivotal in Michigan, a critical swing state, where the presidential race remains tightly contested.
