    That’s the city as a whole, whereas the post claims that specifically a majority of Arab Americans voted for Trump. I don’t have data by race, but I do have a source that the majority of Muslims voted for Jill Stein, both in general and specifically in Michigan. Trump got only 21% of the Muslim vote, not anywhere close to a “majority.”

      Michigan Arab community, majority of whom voted for Trump

      From the post title definitely is saying the majority of those in this community and not “all Arabs”

        “Michigan Arab community” means “all Arabs in Michigan.” It doesn’t specify a specific community beyond that.

          “It’s very unfortunate, sad news,” Abdulhakem Alsadah, president of the Dearborn-based

          “I think its sends the wrong message, that America is not open to democracy and freedom,” Ayad, the founder and board chairman of the Dearborn-based

          U.S. Rep. Debbie Dingell, D-Ann Arbor, who used to live in Dearborn, also released a statement

          Seems pretty focused on Dearborn for an article just talking about Michigan as a whole

            Do you actually have data showing that the majority of Dearborn Arabs or Muslims voted for Trump, in contrast to both Michigan Muslims and Muslims in general, or are you just grasping at straws?
