Which Way Will Indian Americans Lean in US Midterm Elections?

As the United States prepares for its midterm elections, there is intense interest surrounding whether Indian American voters will support the Democrats or the Republicans. A special survey was conducted focusing on Asian American and Pacific Islander voters by AAPI Data and APIAVote.

According to the survey results, a majority of Indian American voters lean towards the Democratic Party. As many as 66 percent of respondents indicated they plan to vote for Democratic Senate and House candidates, while only 22 percent preferred Republican candidates.

Regarding political participation, 66 percent of respondents stated that they are highly active in politics and engaged in political processes. However, voters also expressed that thinking about current political affairs leaves them feeling mentally fatigued.

The report highlighted that key issues such as the rising cost of living, inflation, jobs, and immigration regulations are heavily influencing voters' choices ahead of the elections.
