Michigan Votes; McConnell Vacates

NOTE

Every Vote Matters in Michigan Elections

In recent history, over 200,000 people in Michigan voted uncommitted in a substantial movement to support candidate Obama in 2008. Michigan being a swing state where Biden won by a slim margin of 150,000 votes, highlights the importance of every vote. The state has a significant Arab and Muslim population, especially in Southeast Michigan, who are deeply upset. Despite 100,000 uncommitted votes, four out of five voters in Michigan still support Biden. The percentage of uncommitted voters this time is slightly higher than in 2012, but the absolute number is significantly higher. Biden's campaign emphasizes the importance of looking at the voter turnout in addition to the number of uncommitted votes.
