Who will win the Arab-American vote in US polls?

Their roots lie in the Middle East and North Africa, and they make up about 1 percent of the nation.

Arab-American voters have been on the agenda of US presidential candidates from both Democrats and Republicans as they struggled to win their backing.

In 2000, the majority of Arab-Americans voted for George W Bush, and eight years later Barack Obama was their presidential choice.

Both past candidates they backed won the presidential vote and took over the office.
