Does President Biden realize how angry some voters in Michigan are — specifically, Arab Americans?

That anger is on full display in Dearborn, a suburb of Detroit that has one of the highest percentages of Arab Americans among U.S. cities (54 percent, though experts believe that’s a significant undercount).

Opinion Video traveled to Dearborn to understand voter sentiment in a population that has the power to sway the election.

Michigan has over 200,000 registered voters who are Muslim — enough to swing the state. (Biden won Michigan by 154,000 votes in 2020.) Just finding a pro-Biden Arab American voter in Dearborn is not an easy task.

“I will not be voting for Biden, for sure. And no one will be voting for Biden that I know of,” said Wissam Charafeddine, a poet who works in the public school system. “It would be an insult to ask.”

The Opinion Video above surveys a group of voters who show that age is not Biden’s only problem.
