While Asian Americans comprise a multitude of ethnicities and languages, this survey shows that on many issues, they have many areas of common concern and interest, where they tend to vote as a bloc.

Karthick Ramakrishnan, founder and co-director of AAPI Data added, “Our survey data show remarkable stability over time on issues like environmental protection and gun control, but they also show that more recent anxieties over hate crimes might also sway voters in their candidate choices.”
