Surveys show Muslim voters in four of six key battleground states have rejected Vice President Kamala Harris, who has run a “dump her” campaign over her handling of President Joe Biden and the Israel-Hamas war.
According to a poll by the far-left Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), Published Monday's poll found that the Green Party's Jill Stein was leading Harris among Muslim voters in Michigan, Arizona and Wisconsin, and that Muslim voters in Nevada favored former President Donald Trump more than any other candidate.
The United Arab Emirates classifies CAIR as a terrorist organization, and, as Breitbart News points out, a US federal judge ruled in 2009 that evidence existed that “proved” CAIR had ties to Hamas.

In Michigan, always a key battleground state, 40 percent of Muslim voters support Stein, more than three times as many as Harris, according to CAIR polling data. Trump comes in second with 18 percent, followed by Harris with 12 percent. Independent candidate Cornel West has 2 percent, while just over two in 10 are undecided and 8 percent will not vote.
Michigan is the birthplace of the national Irresponsible Movement, in which more than 500,000 Democratic primary voters from across the country, including Muslims, Arab Americans, young voters and far-left progressives, rejected the Biden-Harris administration's handling of the Israeli-Hamas war with a “Irresponsible” vote. Central to the movement's demands is a ceasefire in the war and an end to arms supplies to Israel.
In Michigan alone, more than 100,000 voters selected the “undecided” option, approaching the 154,188 vote margin by which President Joe Biden won the state in 2019. The poll suggests that Harris is not appealing to Michigan's Muslims and that the issues that once plagued Biden are now plaguing her campaign.

In Wisconsin, where independents showed signs of being more supportive in the primary in the form of “no preference” votes, Harris trailed Stein: Stein received 44% of Muslim voters' votes, Harris 39%, and Trump 8%, with 8% undecided.
In Wisconsin's Democratic primary, 48,812 Democratic primary voters selected the “instruct” option in protest of Biden and Harris, more than double the margin of victory for Biden in 2020, by 20,682 votes.
Harris also faces the challenge of Muslim voters in the Sun Belt, with Trump leading in Nevada and Stein ahead in Arizona.
In the Silver State, 27% of Muslim respondents support Trump and 26% support Harris. Stein remains in double digits at 13% and 9% support West. A quarter of voters remain undecided.
In Arizona, Stein leads with 35 percent of Muslim voters, 29 percent back Harris and 15 percent back Trump, 13 percent are undecided and 7 percent will not vote.

The only states in the poll where Harris has a lead among Muslim voters are Georgia and Pennsylvania, where she has 43 percent and 37 percent support, respectively.
In Georgia, Stein is in second place with 17 percent, followed closely by Trump with 14 percent. Seven percent support Libertarian Party candidate Chase Oliver and 6 percent support West. Another 13 percent are undecided or have refused to vote.
A quarter of Pennsylvania's Muslim voters support Stein, with 8% of Keystone State voters backing Trump and 4% backing West. Nearly 1 in 5 are undecided and 6% will not vote.
When the state responses were pooled into a larger sample, Stein received 30 percent of Muslim voters in battleground states, Harris 28 percent, and Trump 15 percent, while West received 3 percent and Oliver 1 percent.
The CAIR/Molitical Consulting LLC survey included 1,478 responses from Aug. 25-27, 2024, “of which 1,076 were verified and matched to national voter files.” The survey has a margin of error of plus or minus 2.95 percentage points.
The poll came after the pro-Palestinian “Dump Harris” campaign (still registered as the “Dump Biden” campaign) said on the first day of the Democratic national elections in August that it would ensure Harris' defeat in November.
“Its mission is now focused on exposing and opposing Kamala Harris and her complicity in genocide,” the group said in a statement.
After her release, Harris continued to profess her support for Israel in an interview with CNN's Dana Bash, and when Bash asked her if there would be any “policy changes, weapons or otherwise” toward Israel, she replied, “No.” This response drew fierce criticism from the populist progressive left.
The issue poses a major threat to Harris' chances of winning the election.
