MICHIGAN, Feb. 26, 2024 ~ Despite being the heavy favorite to win Michigan‘s Democrat presidential primary Tuesday, President Joe Biden‘s electability in the general election will be tested by a dedicated voting block.
The Listen to Michigan campaign is comprised of voters looking to send a message to the Biden administration by voting “uncommitted” on the Feb. 27 ballot, outraged over his handling of Israel’s military campaign on Gaza, which has killed nearly 30,000 Palestinians. Notable politicians have endorsed the campaign, such as Democrat Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib (MI-12), Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud, former Congressman and Jewish American Andy Levin, former Ohio State Sen. Nina Turner, and former Texas Congressman Beto O’Rourke. Long-shot candidates Marianne Williamson and Dean Phillips will also be on the ballot.
