Indian-American Support Shifts as Biden and Trump Prepare for 2024 Presidential Election
As the US Presidential election day approaches, the contest between Joe Biden and Donald Trump is heating up. The substantial Asian population in the United States, particularly Indian-Americans, is gaining attention as their support could be pivotal in certain states.
In the previous election, many Indian-Americans favored Joe Biden, influenced by Donald Trump's policies that prioritized locals for jobs. However, the 2024 election landscape appears to have shifted, with signs indicating increased support for Trump among Indian-Americans.
Recent studies show a decline in Indian-American support for Biden, while Trump's backing has seen a slight uptick. Trump's promise to grant automatic green cards to foreign students after graduation has positively impacted his image within the community. Conversely, Biden is facing criticism, particularly concerning his age, which became a focal point during the Presidential debate.
Additionally, the rise in gun violence across the country has become a critical issue. The Biden administration's perceived inaction on this front has led to growing disillusionment among Indian-Americans. Many who previously supported Biden out of fear of Trump's return are now considering Trump as a viable option.
