Biden and Trump won their respective Michigan primaries, moving closer to securing their parties' nominations, while a rising number of "uncommitted" Democratic votes expressed anger over Biden's handling of Israel's war on Gaza. The "Listen to Michigan" campaign organized Arab and Muslim voters to choose "uncommitted" as a protest, which could be problematic for Biden in a crucial swing state with a large Arab population that he won narrowly in 2020. Haley secured over 25% of the GOP primary vote despite Trump's victory, showing opposition remains.
