A number of mosques in Iowa have initiated polling centers to attract more participation in Muslim circles, for the first time in US election history.
An activist at the Berne Sanders electoral headquarters, Muhammad Ali, announced that gathering Muslims in the electoral headquarters in Iowa is very difficult.
He added that Muslims do not wish to participate in political affairs for several reasons, including weak self-confidence or fear of discriminatory behavior, but participation has increased this year.
According to Muhammad Ali, who is from Palestinian origins, this participation is closely related to the 5 mosques that have turned into polling centers for voters, where Muslims go.
