    Top link is paywalled FYI

    It seems like Muslims in the USA did though I cannot find anything that differentiates immigrants vs non-immigrants. They seemed to have voted against Harris for the most part because of her support of attacks on Gaza. This makes perfect sense if you recall the same community complained about Biden’s support of the war on Gaza in the primary.

      The second link even notes a majority voted for Jill Stein and was contradicted by another survey that put the community over 60% Harris.

      This whole talking point is just blue maga scapegoating minorities for their own hand in bringing American fascism to power. The funded extremism, boosted Donald trump, destroyed faith in their primaries, courted Republicans and told everyone in their base to eat shit and vote blue.

      It seems like they didn’t, based on your own sources. The first one does not provide any information on how they voted and the second one provides data that shows that a majority of Muslims did not vote for Trump. Did you read beyond the headlines?

        Reread Trump did in fact get quite a lot of votes. It is almost as if people are individuals or something.

          “A lot” is not “a majority.” This post is lying/misinformation.
