Polling of 844 households by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) showed a Muslim turnout of 84%. About 69% of respondents said they voted for former Vice President Joe Biden and 17% said they voted for President Donald Trump.
In the 2016 election, the report said, Trump received 13 percent of the Muslim vote.
CAIR is the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization.
The organization estimated that more than 1 million Muslims voted.
CAIR Director of Government Affairs Robert S. McCaw said, “Muslims vote and there is no denying the role our community plays in local, state and national politics.”
