A recent survey revealed that Asian-Americans are becoming increasingly influential in US politics. The data showed that Democrats are seen as more effective in countering racism compared to Republicans by nearly three times as many respondents. This highlights the growing importance of the Asian-American community in shaping political discourse in the country.
The survey also indicated that Asian-Americans are the fastest-growing racial group in the US and the fastest-growing electorate. The majority of respondents expressed their intention to vote in the upcoming election, with a preference for Biden over Trump. However, a significant portion of voters are considering alternate candidates due to a lack of enthusiasm for the main contenders.
The survey also highlighted the diverse political views within the Asian-American community and their concerns regarding issues such as translators at polling stations, voting methods, and teaching Asian-American history in schools. Additionally, a significant portion of respondents expressed worry about hate crimes and discrimination, with ongoing tensions affecting perceptions of the community.
The survey also highlighted concerns about misinformation and disinformation within the community, with implications for political engagement and decision-making.
