A new report from the Council on American Islamic Relations shows Green Party candidate Jill Stein leading Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump among Muslim voters in some swing states.

With the 2024 election shaping up to be the closest in a generation, vital minority groups like Muslim Americans in swing states could be the key to winning or losing the White House.

The report released on Sep. 9 showed Stein leading Harris and Trump among Muslim voters in the key states of Arizona, Michigan and Wisconsin. In Arizona, Stein had 35% of Muslim voters while 40% of respondents in Michigan and 44% in Wisconsin signaled their support of the Green Party candidate.

Stein’s large support in Michigan could prove to be a headache to the Harris campaign as she tries to rebuild the coalition President Joe Biden had in 2020. The state is the home to Dearborn, the city in the United States with the highest per capita population of Muslim-Americans in the country.
