A record number of Muslim delegates are attending this year’s Democratic
National Convention, according to the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

An estimated 100 Muslim delegates from 20 different states are in
Charlotte, the group said in a press release, which pointed out that only a
“handful” of delegates attended the Republican National Convention last
week in Tampa, “during which the RNC adopted a platform plank targeting the
religious practices of Muslims,” the group’s press release said.

There were 43 Muslim and Arab-American delegates at the DNC in 2008 and 25
in 2004, according to CAIR.

"The more than doubling of Muslim delegates at this year's Democratic
National Convention is a direct result of their hard work and grassroots
organizing within the Democratic Party," CAIR Government Affairs
Coordinator Robert McCaw said in the press release. "It is also a sign of
the American Muslim community's growing civic engagement and acceptance in
the Democratic Party."

CAIR is America's largest Muslim civil liberties and advocacy organization.
