"Progressive 'Uncommitted' Protest Vote Gains Traction in Super Tuesday Contests"

President Joe Biden faced a significant protest vote in Minnesota and six other states on "Super Tuesday" due to his support for Israel's actions in Gaza, with a notable portion of Democrats marking their ballots "uncommitted." The protest vote, which ranged from 3.9% to 19% across the states, was driven by a diverse group including students, suburban women, liberal Jewish activists, and Muslim Americans. While the movement does not plan to support Donald Trump, it aims to hold the Democratic party accountable and has garnered attention from Vice President Kamala Harris, who called for a temporary ceasefire in Gaza. Biden's campaign acknowledges the protesters' concerns and emphasizes his commitment to achieving a just and lasting peace.
