He campaigned in Dearborn last week, pledging to bring peace to the Middle East, despite his longstanding support of Israel. Vice President Kamala Harris garnered 36% of the vote among city residents.

Green Party candidate Jill Stein, who campaigned as the anti-war candidate, received 18% of the votes. Some Muslim and Arab American voters shifted toward Stein and Trump hoping one of them would end Israel’s war in Gaza.

Still, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu cheered Trump’s victory, and foreign policy experts say the win could embolden Netanyahu to expand the war. Trump has urged the prime minister to do whatever it takes to win in Gaza.

CAIR conducted the election survey two days after the Democratic National Convention ended last month. The organization said 1,500 people responded to the survey out of a random sample of 40,000 Muslim voters across the nation.

The survey results show that Stein has more support in Arizona, Wisconsin and Michigan — while Harris is favored in Georgia and Pennsylvania.

There are an estimated 2.5 million registered Muslim voters in the United States.
