Anybody here know the numbers as to how many votes Kamala Harris missed out on because of Gaza? [View all]

While I watch my country be completely destroyed, while I watch Republicans arrest Democrats to force them to let the Republicans illegally gerrymander their state, I’m wondering if something happened in 2024 that happened not that long ago, happened again maybe?

Before I discuss it further I would really need to know how many potential voters said no to Kamala because of Gaza, an absurd and stupid reason to do it but you know, that need for candidates to be 100% pure in order to get their support, I’m sincerely asking I would like to know if anyone has dove that deep into the numbers.

Probably somewhat higher than the number of voters whose relatives were killed by US-supplied munitions in Gaza. David__77 Aug 2025 #21

I think most voted for her even if they were rightly concerned about Gaza and the genocide. Ping Tung Aug 2025 #24
