  1. Sure, because a “yes” person is what the USA needs. So she can be led by the same people who led Biden. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Who cares about business right? just smile, be happy, and talk back 😌

  2. The poll showed that 66% of Asian American voters plan on backing Harris, while 28% say they’ll be voting for Trump. When he was still in the race, President Joe Biden had been losing Asian American voters, dropping roughly 8 points compared to the 2020 presidential election cycle, [a previous poll](https://www.nbcnews.com/news/asian-america/biden-asian-american-voters-election-2024-rcna160854) showed. But experts say that Harris has more than reversed that dip.  

    “People had seen all the Zoom meetings for different Asian American groups for Harris, is that actually materializing in terms of support? … The answer is yes,” Karthick Ramakrishnan, whose nonprofit AAPI Data commissioned the poll with nonprofit Asian and Pacific Islander American Vote. “Harris has essentially restored a lot of the drop in support that Biden experienced.” 

  3. This is the best tl;dr I could make, [original](https://www.nbcnews.com/news/asian-america/harris-trump-poll-asian-american-voters-rcna172255) reduced by 87%. (I’m a bot)

  4. As an Asian (US citizen but born in China) I’m honestly shocked it’s that high. Asian Americans are overall decently liberal, but I’ve been shocked as an adult how many of the older generations are susceptible to strongman propaganda even while their home countries have suffered in the past from strongman leaders. A lot of Chinese people also idolize business success and wealth (Bill Gates was a bigger celebrity than Britney Spears in the 90s in China). Older Asians are also typically much more conservative.

    But this is a great sign even though it’s just one poll. It gives me hope that we are becoming a bigger and bigger voting bloc that can begin to make even more major moves and have our concerns heard and be taken seriously.

  5. Polls don’t win elections! People who love their country and work for a better future win elections. Please vote. If not registered please register. If you life in a state where voting rolls are being purged check your status. Hard work is what will bring success.👏👏👏

    Reminder to all Asian American voters. Trump is the man who attacked the Chinese and Asians for COVID… the “China virus”… I’m not going to say here or there where COVID came from. All I know is your don’t blame an entire race and culture for it. You’ll be the next Haitians that he tries to court and then blame when he loses.

    He’s already setting up the Jewish Americans for this vile parlor trick.

    Make him fall behind by 100 percent. Kick his ass out of politics once and for all!

    Vote and vote your conscience! To me, that’s Harris and Walz!
