Democratic protest leaders won’t endorse Harris, caution against Trump

The Uncommitted Movement During the Israel-Hamas War


Amidst the conflict between Israel and Hamas, leaders of a Democratic protest vote movement in Michigan have taken a stand. While they have decided not to endorse Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential bid, they are strongly encouraging their supporters to vote against Donald Trump in the upcoming election.

The “Uncommitted” movement gained traction in Democratic primaries earlier this year as a protest against President Joe Biden’s handling of the Israel-Hamas war. Despite months of negotiation with Democratic officials, the group felt unheard and dissatisfied following the Democratic National Convention where they were denied a speaker on stage and their demands were not met.

The movement leaders expressed their disappointment with Harris’ stance on the conflict, citing her unwillingness to change her policy on weaponry and human rights laws. As a result, they could not extend their endorsement to her candidacy. However, they strongly advised against supporting Trump or any third-party candidates that might unintentionally lead to a Trump presidency.

The group emphasized the need for anti-war organizing power and the detrimental impact a Trump administration could have on their movement. They urged voters to register “anti-Trump votes” and to vote comprehensively to drive their message.

The movement originated in Michigan, where over 100,000 voters marked “Uncommitted” in the state’s Democratic primary. With Michigan home to a significant Arab American population, the group’s stand holds weight in a crucial battleground state where presidential candidates seek to gain support.

Both nominees have actively engaged with leaders in the Arab American community in Michigan, showcasing the significance of this demographic in the upcoming election. Harris and Trump have sought endorsements and support from Arab American leaders, recognizing the community’s influence in the state.
