Muslims, Socialists Banding Together to Deny Harris Presidency

A movement in the state of Michigan to deny Democrat presidential nominee, Vice President Kamala Harris the state’s electoral votes and, likely, the presidency.
Michigan is a crucial “blue wall” state for the vice president and her party and not attaining those 15 electoral votes could be devastating.
One activist group, “Drive for 75,” calls for a 75 percent Muslim voter turnout to stop the vice president from taking the key swing state.
The state has 200,000 Muslim citizens and 75 percent of that number would be crushing for the vice president as President Joe Biden took the state by only 154,188 votes and around 146,000 Muslims voted in the state in that election.
Exit polls showed that 64 percent of Muslims nationwide voted for President Biden in 2020.
“[The Muslim American community] lost their faith in the Democratic Party and the Democratic administration, so they’re out to kind of hold them accountable. And I don’t want to necessarily say punish, but it is also a punishment vote, in a sense. I think that they’re desperate. We’re desperate. It’s also a vote of desperation. You know, we want to see an end to this bloodshed and this genocide as soon as possible,” Rex Nazarko, who heads the group, said to The Daily Caller.
Some who spoke to The Caller said that they do not anticipate that former President Donald Trump would have a Middle East policy that they favor but their mission is more about sending a message to the Democrats.
“We’re hoping that, whether Republicans or Democrats, will not take our vote for granted. So if it is [spoiling Harris’s chances], I hope it teaches not only the Democrats but the Republicans that, you go against your voters, you go against people as well. You continue to support a genocide, you’re going to lose,” Democrat Khalid Turaani, who co-chairs the Abandon Biden campaign, said.
“She parrots the same line of ‘well on Oct. 7’ and okay, there has been more than 50,000 deaths. Two-thirds of them are women and children and she can’t get past ‘well on October 7.’ And we feel that this callous disregard to the lives of Palestinian civilians and the destruction of not only their infrastructure, the entire place in Gaza has been decimated, and and she just continues to parrot the same line. Meanwhile, continuing to support the Israeli assault and the Palestinian civilians and their lives and their buildings and their every aspect of their lives is under assault,” he said as his group changed its name to “Abandon Harris.”
“This administration represented by Biden and Harris continues to support that. The other thing is the fact that every effort to stop the genocide has been thwarted by this administration,” he said.
Kshama Sawant, a former Seattle City Council Member and self-described socialist, has supported the candidacy of Jill Stein to thwart the vice president.
“We need to be clear about what our goals are, we are not in a position to win the White House. But we do have a real opportunity to win something historic. We could deny Kamala Harris the state of Michigan,” she said.
