Dearborn, Michigan CNN —In 2020, Eman Hammoud was one of thousands of Michigan Muslims who helped President Joe Biden beat Donald Trump.
A month ago, the Palestinian American immigration lawyer had no doubts she would support his campaign again in 2024.
Michigan has more than 200,000 Muslim American voters — 146,000 of whom turned out to vote in 2020 –— according to an analysis by Emgage, an organization that seeks to build the political power of Muslim Americans.
“That just proves that the Biden administration needs the Muslim vote to win,” said Nada Al-Hanooti, the Michigan executive director of Emgage Action.
“We felt that the rhetoric, including from the White House, was very unhelpful and in fact potentially dangerous,” Alzayat said.
