Muslim Americans Just Redrew the Electoral Map—and No One’s Talking About It

2025-05-26

Muslim Americans, African-American men, Latino citizens, union members, unions (!!), Native Americans — all the traditionally locked-in Democratic voters except college-educated women are now either divided or breaking for President Trump. It’s been fascinating to watch.

[Townhall] In one of the most politically significant—but underreported—developments of the 2024 election cycle, a new survey reveals that Moslem Americans are no longer a reliable voting bloc for the Democratic Party. This shift reflects not only political disillusionment but a deeper cultural and ideological rift that is quietly reshaping the American electoral map.

According to a nationally representative poll conducted by J.L. Partners in collaboration with the Moslem American Leadership Alliance (MALA), the Moslem-American vote is now evenly split: 34 percent of respondents identify as Democrats
...every time you hear the phrase white people, white supremacy, white anything but paint, you're listening to a Democrat. Ask him/her/it to reimagine something for you; they do that a lot, though not well. They can hear a dog whistle a mile or two away. They invented the spoils system and Tammany Hall, and inspired the addition of the word (Thomas) Nasty to the English language. They want to stop continental drift and repeal the law of unintended side effects...

secured 69 percent of this demographic. In 2024, Kamala Harris
former senatrix from California, 2020 Dem presidential hopeful and ultimately Joe Biden's intended successor
, then the Democratic nominee, garnered only 20.3 percent of the Moslem vote—while Green Party candidate Jill Stein captured a stunning 53 percent.

This political earthquake signals more than dissatisfaction with a particular candidate or administration. It reflects a growing realization among Moslem Americans that the Democratic Party has drifted away from the traditional, family-centered values that define their communities.

The numbers speak volumes. While 52 percent of Moslem Americans still view the Democratic Party favorably, a sizable segment supports policies typically associated with the Republican platform. The MALA poll found that 43 percent back the deportation of illegal im~~migrants~~ colonists, 44 percent support increased domestic oil drilling, and 62 percent favor eliminating taxes on tipped income. These are not fringe positions—they are mainstream conservative policies gaining ground with Moslem voters.

Cultural concerns are just as pivotal. Many Moslem Americans have voiced unease with the Democratic Party’s promotion of gender ideology and LGBTQ+ content in schools, especially where it intersects with young children. These concerns are not rooted in intolerance—they stem from a clash between progressive dogma and deeply held religious and moral values.

Moslem communities in the U.S. prioritize modesty, family cohesion, spiritual tradition, and the protection of children. These values increasingly conflict with the Democratic Party’s progressive agenda on sexuality, gender identity, and parental rights in education.

Layered on top of this cultural divergence is a deepening sense of betrayal—particularly on foreign policy. From Israel and Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
to Russia, Ukraine and Afghanistan, the Democratic Party’s foreign interventions have deeply affected Moslem-majority regions and undermined the moral credibility of U.S. leadership in the eyes of many Moslem voters.

Matt Duss, executive vice president at the Center for International Policy and former foreign policy advisor to Senator Bernie Sanders

...The ~~only~~ first openly Socialist member of the U.S. Senate. Sanders was Representative-for-Life from Vermont until moving to the Senate for the rest of his life in 2006, assuming the seat vacated by Jim Jeffords. He ran for the 2016 nomination for president, to be cheated out of it by Hillary Clinton, then went back to being an Independent socialist, waiting for 2020 to roll around...
, argued in a January 2025 Guardian article that Democrats have become the party of militarism, ceding the anti-war mantle to Republicans. He warned that the party’s embrace of hawkish foreign policy has alienated voters who oppose U.S. interventionism—particularly in the Middle East.

This assessment tracks closely with electoral trends from 2024. In Michigan—home to one of the largest Moslem populations in the U.S.—exit polls showed that 59 percent of Moslem voters backed Jill Stein, while just 14 percent supported Kamala Harris. Duss’s critique underscores the electoral cost of a Democratic foreign policy increasingly at odds with its base.

Importantly, this realignment is not about blind allegiance to the GOP. It represents a pragmatic reassessment of leadership—especially regarding war, peace, and international justice.

(granted, this is a troubling find), just 14 percent backed Israel, and 44 percent supported neither side—indicating a nuanced, issue-by-issue approach rather than rigid ideological alignment. It also reflects deep fatigue with the endless wars associated with Democratic leadership.

This is not a story of mass conversion to conservatism—it is a recalibration based on policy, values, and a demand for representation. Moslem Americans are asserting their political independence. No longer content to be treated as a monolithic voting bloc, they are making it clear: their loyalty depends on substance, not slogans.
