‘They blew it’: Democrats lost 22,000 votes in Michigan’s heavily Arab American cities https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/nov/09/democrats-lose-michigan-arab-american-voters #Palestinianterritories #USelections2024 #KamalaHarris #DonaldTrump #Republicans #USpolitics #Democrats #Michigan #USnews #Islam #Race #Gaza

“Those community members who did not support Trump linked the former president's reelection to a 'failure of Democratic leadership' that stopped listening to the community's concerns that go beyond the #Israel-#Hamas war in #Gaza.”

Voters in Dearborn and Dearborn Heights found #Trump more genuinely interested in hearing their grievances … than #Harris or … #Biden, neither of whom made a … [campaign] visit to Dearborn ….”

Hoax bomb threats, many of which appeared to originate from Russian email domains, were directed on Tuesday at polling locations in five battleground states - #Georgia, #Michigan, #Arizona, #Wisconsin and #Pennsylvania - as Election Day voting was underway, the #FBI said.

"None of the threats have been determined to be credible thus far," the FBI said in a statement, adding that election integrity was among the bureau's highest priorities.

Musk-linked Pac accused of targeting Jewish and Arab Americans in swing states https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/nov/04/election-musk-pac-michigan-ads-israel-gaza #USelections2024 #Israel-Gazawar #KamalaHarris #DonaldTrump #Republicans #USpolitics #Democrats #ElonMusk #Michigan #Detroit #USnews

"Standing next to her hastily packed suitcase in Michigan’s Macomb County Wednesday night, Tyra Muldrow had a bad feeling in her gut.

“I have this eerie feeling that I need to get the hell up out of there,” says Muldrow, a 20-year-old Black woman from Florida. She was in Michigan as a door knocker, hired by a subcontractor for Elon Musk’s America PAC operation to turn out the vote for Donald Trump in the heavily contested working-class suburbs of Detroit.

Muldrow and the rest of her canvassing group of roughly a dozen people had just been fired en masse, after WIRED reported that they had been tricked and threatened as part of Musk’s get-out-the-vote effort. Speaking publicly for the first time about her ordeal, Muldrow says that the canvassers in her group were fired with little explanation beyond a complaint that someone had spoken with the press. Many, including her, were still owed money. Muldrow had to find her own way home; others are still stranded in Michigan."

"Arab and #MuslimAmericans in the state of Michigan are grappling with a critical choice this election. Nearly 400,000 #ArabAmericans in the state were instrumental in delivering #Michigan to elect Joe #Biden in 2020. This time, however, many feel betrayed by his administration’s support for Israel’s wars in #Gaza and #Lebanon."

Harris opens her speech in Lansing, Michigan, with a shout out to Arab-Americans, civilians in Gaza and Lebanon and a vow to try to end the war. "I am not looking to score political points, I'm looking to make progress" Harris says. "I don't believe people who disagree with me are the enemy. In fact, I'll give them a seat at the table." #us #usa #news #minimarketonlineltd #minimarket #America #SaveAmerica #kamalaharris #Harris #Kamala #HarrisWalz #Harris2024 #Michigan #lansing #gaza #arab

@palestine "inaction"!!! It's active backing up the #genocide for over a year now. Not only in #Michigan, but #Muslim and #Arab voters all over #America will vote for #JillStein in the #Election2024

"Declines" is a polite way of saying "Refuses".

“Wow. CNN uncovered that Kamala [#Harris] is running very different ads on her stance on the war in #Gaza depending on the market.

In #Michigan, it’s all about a #ceasefire.

In #Pennsylvania, she promotes her support for #Israel.

What an absolute fraud.”

"🇺🇸 🕋 - 42% of #AmericanMuslims will vote for #JillStein, 41% for #KamalaHarris and 10% for #Trump - Council on American-Islamic Relations.

This could likely swing #Michigan for Trump."

Angela Benander, a spox for the #Michigan SoS’s office, said, “It speaks to the efforts that we are not going to tolerate any attempts to circumvent the #law.”

Election ofcls across the country are worried about effectively an insider threat—that elected ofcls steeped in #Trump #disinformation could disrupt the process.

Already in MI, the state has taken over supervision of elections in Shelby Twp, where a #Republican clerk was charged w/a #felony for his role in the 2020 #FakeElectors scheme.

In #Michigan, hand-counting is against the #law…. Experts believe voting machines are more reliable & faster than hand counts. Jonathan Brater, MI’s elections dir, said the clerk refused an order from the MI secretary of state to follow proper procedures.

Brater ordered Schierkolk & his deputy hand their #election duties to other ofcls “in order to ensure public trust & confidence in the integrity & security of elections” & their access to the state voter-roll system was shut off.

2 local #election officials in #Michigan have been removed from overseeing the vote, in a forceful move to keep #Trump-aligned ofcls from trying to subvert election rules.

Tom Schierkolk, the clerk of Rock River Township in MI’s UP, & his deputy, David LaMere, were removed after telling state ofcls that they intended to hand count ballots before sending their tally on for the county canvass….
