Michigan is at the center of an intense showdown as Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Kamala Harris vie for votes in this crucial battleground state. With its substantial Arab American and Muslim population, Michigan's significance is heightened by concerns over global issues and local economic shifts.

Trump, addressing supporters near Detroit, promised to end conflicts in the Middle East and rejuvenate Detroit's auto industry, appealing directly to Muslim voters and union workers. Meanwhile, Harris, alongside Michelle Obama, spotlighted policies on abortion rights, taxes, and healthcare in stark contrast to Trump's agenda.
