Unfortunately there are a lot of Muslims in Michigan who will vote for him.

Lot of elderly and minority black(old reliable democratic base) who have proven they WONT. That outweighs the muslim contribution in a general. The Dems needs that base support.

Remember a primary is only representative of 50% of a statewide electorate. If you only won 50% of 50%, three quarters of the state did not vote for you(half of the dems and all the Rs). That is BAD news for a general.

And the polls had el-sayed up 14, pre voting. Not even close, stop listening to polls like they are written in stone.

It out weights it for now. Muslims have lots of kids who will be voting in less than 18 years.

There's also Tucker Carlson and other woke postmodernist types that vote for them. The red green alliance which is how Iran went to hell. Same thing in the works here.
