Amish For Trump

In 2020, Biden only beat Trump by 80 thousand votes in Pennsylvania. This past election, GOP organizers and a missionary group got the Amish to register to vote through “Operation Help Thy Neighbor.’ It offered free car rides, paid by Elon Musk, directly to the polls from Amish weddings so nearly 30 thousand of them could vote for Donald Trump, helping to flip the state Republican. Amish traditionally don’t vote, but the deeply religious community is against abortion, and earlier this year, they were extremely hurt by government oversight when the FDA raided a local farm for selling raw milk after some children got sick with listeria.
