Huge majorities chose Democrats in the last two presidential elections in South Paterson, but that changed in 2024. Here's why.

Community leaders say Muslim voters were angered by the Biden-Harris administration's inability to stem the growing humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

This year's Green Party presidential candidate, Jill Stein, has blamed Democrats for their election loss, and has said the two party political system in the U.S. is broken. She said Democrats have no one but themselves to blame for another "disastrous" Trump victory.

Donald Trump secured a clear victory in the 2024 presidential election, but some online posts claimed Kamala Harris would have won several key states if not for ballots cast for third-party candidates.

Some people are once again questioning election results, but this time many of those voices are coming from the left.

The results mark a stark shift from 2020, when 69% of Muslim Americans voted for President Joe Biden and 17% voted for Trump. This movement away from the Democratic party was fueled, at least in part, by the U.S. government’s support for Israel’s war in Gaza, Robert McCaw, CAIR’s national government affairs director, said in a news release.

Donald Trump became the first Republican presidential candidate since 2000 to win the majority-Arab city of Dearborn, Michigan.

Collins ascended to the top Republican position on the House Judiciary Committee, subsequently emerging as a powerful defender of Trump during his impeachment.

But that’s all the more reason it looked for a while like there could be a bumper crop of non-major party presidential candidates. There was the No Labels movement, which for a while was making elaborate claims of viability (or at least significant visibility) for a bipartisan ticket in states across the country.

Four years after Biden dominated there, Trump got 42% of the vote, a plurality. Green Party nominee Jill Stein nearly cracked 20%. Harris landed in the middle, with 36%. According to national exit polls, more than 6 in 10 Muslims voted for the Democrat – a clear majority, but a stark decline from past cycles.
