Salaam Alaikum:

The day has come for Americans to casts their votes on who will lead the country for the next 4 years. American Muslims became an election platform for the first time in American history and we must cast our votes to ensure that we fight against Islamophobia and bigotry across all public offices. Further, several major propositions are also being decided, including the legalization of marijuana and if state wide voters should have a say in local infrastructure spending. 

On Tuesday November 8th, polls are open from from 7 am – 8 pm.
