    Do Arabs get to vote in the US?

    Or if you mean Arabs that chose to go live in the US, I don’t think they care too much about a country that, well, murdered all the natives

      Yes, Arab Americans do and are enough to swing elections in Michigan and a few other states

      In Michigan, for example, Biden won in 2020 by 154,000 votes. Census estimates put the state’s Arab American population around at least 278,000.

      Biden won Arizona by 10,500 votes. The Arab American population in the Grand Canyon State is estimated to be 60,000.

      Biden took Georgia by 11,800 votes. The Arab American population there is at least 57,000.
