I wouldn't put that much faith in that number honestly. It's anecdotal and a small sample size. It's very clear that Arabs arre concentrated in critical swing states like Michigan and Wisconsin and based on the number of voters for both sides as well as for the Greens, they likely could have made the difference. I don't think it was the only reason Harris lost, but I do think it was a big one.

It's not just anecdotal, but this guy obviously had a list selected on some sort of political axis. You don't get "communist" complaints if your list is about getting out the vote in core Democratic bases.
