So 35% Muslims think Donald Trump is OK!

===

Updated at 11:40 a.m. ET. on Nov. 4

Here you'll see information about the overall national electorate. This includes demographic measures, views of the main presidential candidates, opinions on various issues and how people cast their ballots.

This data comes from AP VoteCast, a survey of the U.S. electorate conducted over several days before Nov. 3, continuing until the polls close. The data includes interviews with more than 110,000 people across the U.S. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 0.4 percentage points for voters. It is an alternative to traditional exit polls.

Data is adjusted periodically throughout the night as more information comes in. The most recent updates to the data have weighted the results according to preliminary vote totals.

Most indians voted for Biden. Indian Americans are different from Indian citizens who might feel some sort of kinship with Trump.

All of my friends who are on H1B voted Biden. The ones who own businesses voted Trump. I would say its about 50-50 in my circle.
 
Doesn't matter what your race, religion or gender is... there will be people from every race that votes Trump.

I won't be politically incorrect by calling them idiots

People who earn more than 150k per year as family income will vote Trump. Biden is going to increase Taxes on Wealthy and people who are on the way up.
Even Rich Blacks voted Trump.

Biden's tax plan won't effect anyone making under 400k so that would make no sense if 150k is the threshold.
 
Most American Muslims used to vote Republican before the 'War on terror' etc so it's not too surprising. There also wasn't any (from what I remember) anti-Muslim rhetoric from him this election compared to the 2016 where he said he would stop Muslims immigrating to the US

Please fact check because the trump tax cuts was another pile of rubbish which his supporters bought into

Not too surprising. Trump didn't start any new wars in the Middle East during his 4-year tenure, so Muslims probably figured that it would hold for another 4 years.

How can they vote if they are on H1B?
Are these the fraudsters Trump keeps harping about?
 
Surprised at this.

I thought it would have been around 5%
 
I guess it got do with the fact that Trump worked on getting the US forces out of the middle east region. People want peace again for their families back home. Stop the killing of innocents.

Trump hasn't gotten out of the Mideast.
He's given the reigns to Saudi and the carnage in Yemen is the precursor to far more barbaric acts that could come in the future.
 
Quite shocking that 65% of American Muslims voted against Trump considering that they only arrived in the UK based on monetary value.
 
Putting Trump aside, most Muslims have very similar views to those of Republicans on many different issues, eg Same sex marriage, abortion, family values, LGBT rights, religious freedoms, to name just a few.
 
Hope the radical left carry with their communist-progessive agenda and awaken the white americans.
 
This is good to see tbh, this shows assimilation because

groups are divided between liberal, conservatives(in a perfect word) equally this shows that slowly but surely identity policy is dying in the US

next step is to get the black votes divided along party lines

the day when we see a 50,50 split in Black communities we'll truly be a free, democratic society in every sense of the word

(but I still feel responsibility lies on Republican party to make minorities feel "protected" so opponents don't resort to identity politics)
 
Trump shouldn't have sidelined the tea party, he has also sidelined Bolton, spicer and bannon
 
Muslims in the US should realize that Biden (under Obama) started wars in Libya, Syria, toppled regimes in Tunisia, Egypt, escalated the war in Afghanistan and increased drone attacks in pakistan by 500%. He is one of the biggest war monger of our generation and recent video surfaced where he wants to attack Turkey.

Compare that to Trump who kept pulling troops out. So in the end, for world Muslims, who is better? One wants to attack their countries and other brought back troops.

Sorry to say but this post may get a lot of flak just because I am stating the facts (instances that already happened).

look I get what you're saying

but people vote for who they think is the right candidate for their countries

these bombing although sad are happening thousands of miles away from the reality we are facing in the US

you take care of your family, neighbors before you care about whats happening in Libya

this is the simple explanation
 
Trump is racist and Islamophobic and hijacked the republican party for his own agenda. Otherwise , historically muslims used to prefer rebublicans over dems. 35% Muslims who still voted for Trump, must be those greedy ones for whom paying a little bit lower taxes was the most important matter.

I'm happy, first time voted for a winning presidential candidate in USA. I voted against Trump, Obama and Bush, all won.

You're right, Obama has been the most anti-muslim and anti-Pakistan and probably the worst US president in recent times, but Joe will be different , only time will tell.

Well I am just stating from what we have seen so far of Biden. I am no god who would know what is in future, but from what we know of Biden, he should be in jail and trialed for war crimes and human rights violations in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq, Libya, Egypt, Somalia, Tunisia.

But instead of trying him, people (immigrants from the bombed countries) elected him. Time will tell what he does now. I just hope and pray for Pakistan and Turkey (on Biden's radar).

And, Trump has been responsible for more than 240000 death of Americans died of Covid. According to Columbia University studies , had he acted with responsibility, at least more than 150000 American woul have been alive .

And, you're not wrong, Bush and Obama have been responsible for thousands of deaths in Middle East during their time. Trump supporting Saudi Arabia in their war in Yemen, where will you draw the line.

Completely agree, this Biden's a warmonger especially against Muslims and Muslim states if you look at his history.

To be fair to Trump, Yemen started already during Obama's time. Obama regime did support Saudi with arms against Yemen. Trump continued that considering Saudi purchases the weapons at t he price of Trump's chosing. Both Obama and Trump goofed up there

The COVID-19 response was poor. Americans died and Trump should be responsible. But it was within their nation and it wasn't like an outside country was killing americans. On the other hand Obama ensured US is the outside country that kills millions in other places.

Lmaoo you clearly made this up. But it’s like literally common sense. You didn’t even need to know specifics before making such idiotic claims. If you’re on visa how can you even vote

Taxes are gonna increase if you earn more than $400k as an individual. Still don’t fully agree with that but taxes won’t increase across the board and won’t affect most Americans
 
Biden has said it repeatedly taxes won’t go up for people making less than 400k. We will see if he stays true to it. Politicians rarely stay true to their words though. And Dems are known for raising taxes.

We will see.
 
More than half of all Muslim-American candidates for public office who ran in the general election won their races, a trio of Muslim advocacy groups said Friday.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), Jetpac and MPower Change said of the 110 Muslim-Americans who ran for a variety of posts, 57 emerged or are projected to emerge victorious following the Nov. 3 general election.

The individuals ran in competitions that spanned 24 states and Washington, D.C., and the number of Muslim candidates in the election is the highest the groups have tracked since 2016.

Of the 57 victors, seven made history as the first Muslims elected to their respective state offices.

It is noteworthy that the United States House of Representatives has 435 seats and the Senate has 100 seats.

Mohammed Missouri, executive director of Jetpac, said in a statement, “Increasing our political representation is a critical part of defeating the violent rise of Islamophobia here and around the world because it forces elected officials and the media to include our perspective in the narrative on healthcare, the economy, criminal legal system, and every other issue impacting American life.”

In all, the advocacy groups tracked roughly 170 candidates who ran for office, including those who were eliminated in primary contests, and therefore did not make it to the Nov. 3 election. That figure is roughly 30 more than the previous high of 134 Muslim-American candidates who ran in 2018.

Jetpac, CAIR, and MPower said they plan to distribute a full list of local, primary and general election candidates after general election results are certified.

I don’t think attacking the personal income taxes has really been his aim. He will go for the corporate tax rate which Trump brought down from 35% to 21%. Biden likely will bring it up to 28-30%. So his major tax plan doesn’t really afffect individuals directly. Some critics say there thee would an indirect knock on affect with low salaries etc. but the fact is that most corporates use these savings in taxes to buy back stocks and increase executive compensation.
 
Yes, many muslims I know voted for Trump because there were fewer bombings in the Muslim world under Trump than under Obama. They voted for him because they were greatful for the massive unemployment checks under Trump in the last 6 months. They also voted for him because they don't want to pay higher taxes under Biden. With massive printing, there's bound to be a time where heavy taxes would have been imposed on middle class. Not just the ones that make more than 400k. That was the understanding.

250k plus in any country is high income individual. Why are people expecting income up to 400k to not be taxed accordingly?
Or is 400k still not sufficient in a country like USA?

But this wont have any effect on the billionaires though, they wont pay anymore tax.
 
US were probably on the brink of civil war and with hate crime on the rise especially with regards to Islamaphobia, police brutality etc you can see why more muslims voted for Biden.

However, how many / which wars were started by previous presidents which affected world muslims and did Trump continue that trend ? you can argue that perhaps long term if the likes of Biden's ilk return their old roots, it wont be good nationally in the US and internationally for muslims [MENTION=53290]Markhor[/MENTION]

Iraq War 1 & 2, as well as the Afghan War were started by the Republicans
I think with regards to Muslims, both parties have blood on their hands.

However Biden was a loud voice in the 1990's against the ethnic cleansing of Bosnian Muslims..

With regards to the states were heating towards civil war, it actually looks like they're racing towards it now.
Democrats believe they've won fairly and squarely and the President, his AG and the top repluclocans are unwilling to accept the decision.
Interesting times

Biden voted for Iraq and Afghanistan wars though
 
Biden is not signing the Iran deal.

Biden was a newbie in foreign politics in the 90s which is why he spoke out. As he climbed higher he realised that Zionists have the true power in the USA. He has changed his tune since.

Don't be fooled. Biden is a puppet. Remember, this was Biden's THIRD shot at the Presidency.

Step away from MSM and do your own research.

Agree both parties may well have blood on their hands and while there's a lot not to like in Trump he wasn't a war mongerer and honoured his pledge regarding withdrawal of troops. I don't think any of these guys have the best interests of a particular group of people at heart but we can go by their actions in office, as far as combating extremism long term is concerned; Trump stepped away from the status quo to a degree and provided a break from the radicals who use foreign intervention to their advantage which in turn impacts us here in the west when there is an attack

BUMP!
Unfortunately due to these recent bombings in Syria, more refugees would be created, more would move to US and then vote for someone like Biden.
