An audible gasp was heard on CNN last night as anchor and chief national correspondent John King broke down the incoming Michigan primary election results.
While Biden easily vanquished his Democratic rivals in the Wolverine State, over 100,000 voters let their discontent with the administration's policy towards Israel be known by voting “uncommitted.”
The campaign, led by Rashida Tlaib's sister, had hoped to get 10,000 voters to mark “uncommitted” on their ballot instead of supporting Biden. That 10,000 number about equals the margin Donald Trump unexpectedly won Michigan by in 2016. (RELATED: Tlaib Calls On Michigan Voters To Abandon Biden Over Gaza)
Four years later, Biden defeated incumbent President Trump in Michigan by a margin of 2.78%. Precincts with the highest percentage of Muslims and Arab American voters overwhelmingly supported Biden, with the Democrat receiving 83% of the vote.
Yet, in a stunning twist, Biden suffered a 17-point loss in Dearborn, Michigan, last night – home to the largest concentration of Muslims in the United States.
