Harris rallies in Michigan; Trump holds town hall in North Carolina

NBC News interviewed three Arab American voters to find out who they are voting for and why. Abu Ahmed al Iraqi, a retiree, said he was thinking about voting for the Green Party this year because American foreign policy has lost its humanity.

America needs some “balance between humanity” and politics, said al Iraqi, an Iraqi American who voted for Trump in 2016 and Biden in 2020.

“I don’t want my country, my politics, [to] “Stand with Hamas, no,” he said. “But at least I want my children, my family, [to ]See something, humanity, for the United States, to save children, to save people.

Nasser Eshaweh, 68, a retired cashier from Dearborn who voted Democratic in the last two presidential elections, said he was voting for Harris.

“If you look at what happened, the situation in the Middle East is dire and children there are never protected. But I still have to vote for her. I like to vote democratically.”

Habib Abbas, 47, a government worker from Dearborn, preferred not to reveal who he was voting for, but said it was clear that American foreign policy in the Middle East was ineffective.

“I feel like if this is not resolved or contained as quickly as possible, it can escalate into something much larger that can affect every one of us here in the United States,” Abbas said.

“It’s getting worse and people are very worried, especially a lot of people here who are mostly from the Middle East.”

“There are a lot of people who have lost their families, a lot of innocent lives that have basically been wasted for no apparent reason,” Abbas said.
