Inside the Harris Campaign's Push to Win Back Muslim and Arab Voters
Briefly

With key battleground states like Michigan, Georgia, and Pennsylvania at stake, the campaign is striving to regain the support of Arab and Muslim voters who might otherwise abstain from voting or opt for third-party candidates.
The campaign's approach is to emphasize Vice President Harris's focus on Palestinian rights and international law, contrasting her position against that of former President Trump, who has been criticized for his remarks regarding Muslims.
Despite efforts including targeted advertising and grassroots outreach, the campaign is facing challenges in reconnecting with voters like Hussein Dabajeh, who, despite previous support for Democrats, now feels disillusioned by the party's stance.
The urgency is particularly pronounced in Michigan where over 300,000 residents identify as having Middle Eastern or North African ancestry, a demographic that was crucial to Biden's 2020 victory.
