Biden’s victory in the Michigan primaries in the shadow of growing dissatisfaction with him

Donald Trump and Joe Biden simultaneously won their parties’ primaries in Michigan. But at the same time, the protest vote of Democrats who are “angry” about Biden’s policy towards Gaza has targeted his victory.

According to Reuters, a large number of “Arab Americans” live in Michigan and are increasingly being asked to choose the “do not participate” column on ballots to express their dissatisfaction and opposition to the policies of the current US president. Express the West Asia. After 16 percent of the Democratic votes were counted, it was determined that 24,000 voters had already selected this column.

Michigan typically offers an opt-out option as a way to question whether a nominated candidate has the support of the party’s base.

Trump also won the primary, winning 64 percent of Republican support, while Nikki Haley received 32 percent. Overall, Michigan could become a key state in the next election. In 2020, Biden defeated Trump in Michigan by only 2.8%.

However, it seems that Biden’s policies towards Gaza will somewhat hinder his victory in the elections. Maybe some of his actions in the field of energy will save him from defeat in the 2024 elections, but he has a tough competition against his former rival.
