U S. PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN AND DONALD TRUMP WON THEIR RESPECTIVE PARTY PRIMARIES IN THE STARE OF MICHIGAN. (PHOTO).

Both were widely expected to win, but the margins of those victories were closely watched as signs of support for the two candidates in the key state, ahead of their likely rematch of the 2020 presidential election won by Biden. 


With nearly all of the votes counted in the Democratic presidential primary early Wednesday, Biden led with 81%, while 13% of voters chose “uncommitted.” 


Michigan is home to the largest concentration of Arab Americans in the country, and opposition to Biden’s support for Israel’s war in Gaza against Hamas militants led some Democrats to call for voters to select “uncommitted” instead of casting a vote for Biden. 


Supporters of the effort for “uncommitted” ballots said they were hoping for 10,000 such votes, a level that was easily surpassed with the tally at more than 100,000. 


In the Republican presidential primary, Trump had 68% of the vote compared to about 27% for former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley with nearly all of the ballots counted early Wednesday.
