TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — A recent survey shows that all Asian American groups polled plan to vote for Joe Biden, with the exception of Vietnamese Americans, who favor Trump.
The "2020 Asian Voter Survey (AAVS)," carried out by AAPI Data and based on telephone interviews conducted online from July 15 to Sept. 10 on 1,569 registered voters who identify as Asian American. The groups included in the survey included Asian Americans, Asian Indians, Chinese, Filipinos, Japanese, Koreans, and Vietnamese.
Understanding where these groups stand on the candidates is important, as Asian Americans are the fastest-growing ethnic group in the U.S., and in some competitive states, such as Arizona, Pennsylvania, and North Carolina, they form a critical mass. They are also expected to play a role in the congressional races in Texas, New Jersey, and California, a state where they account for 10 percent of registered voters.
