Muslim Voters Choose Kerry Over Bush, Poll Says

American Muslim voters are overwhelmingly supporting Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry over Republican George W. Bush, according to a new American Muslim Poll conducted by Zogby International. Zogby conducted the poll for Georgetown University's Muslims in the American Public Square (Project MAPS). According to the telephone survey of 1,700 Muslims chosen randomly nationwide -- and an "over-sample of 146 face-to-face interviews of African-American Muslims" -- Muslims backed the Kerry/Edwards ticket over the Bush-Cheney ticket, 76-7 percent. Adding Ralph Nader into the mix, Kerry's lead drops to 68 percent to Bush's 7 percent, with Nader picking up 11 percent support from Muslims. [more ]
