posted on October 12, 2016FiveThirtyEight’s Farai Chideya reports that Muslim Americans are responding to this election’s anti-Muslim rhetoric by politically mobilizing for Hillary Clinton. Donald Trump has only 1 percent support from Muslim Americans in four battleground states—Michigan, Virginia, Florida, and Pennsylvania—according to a spring poll from EMERGE USA.
