A new poll from the Arab-American has found that 59% of Arab Americans say they’ll vote for Biden, and 35% for Trump. 74% view Biden favorably and 25% unfavorably; and more than 80% say they are very likely to vote. This has major implications in swing states like Pennsylvania, Michigan, Ohio and Florida, where Arab Americans comprise up to 5% of voters.
The New Arab has reached out to Arab-American voters in these states and beyond to find out about the issues that matter most to them, and why they will be casting their votes come November 3. The result is this emotional set of testimonies that shows just what it’s like to be an Arab American in 2020, in Trump’s America.
