“The primary objective of the ADC-RI Media Research Project is to research, track, and document anti-Arab and Islamophobic bias in the media, public discourse, and from public officials. This tracking project will serve as a resource tool which will highlight the prevalence of bias and bigotry. The project will expose xenophobia and hatred that target minorities in the U.S., particularly Arab and Muslim Americans.
The project will also celebrate achievements of Arabs and Muslims from around the world.”
Counties report results differently. For example, not every county publishes “undervotes” — ballots with the race left blank, and some don’t publish the total number of write-in ballots immediately. That includes counties with large Arab, South Asian or general Muslim populations, such as San Diego County. And not every blank vote, or vote for Williamson, was for a ceasefire.
