Renewed energy spurred by Kamala Harris’s spot on the national ticket is making some Democratic donors and activists optimistic about higher voter turnout among a growing constituency of Indian-Americans in battleground states

Shekar Narasimhan was flooded with calls and messages from fellow Indian-Americans almost immediately after Joe Biden announced Sen. Kamala Harris, the daughter of an Indian mother and Jamaican father, as his running mate.

Mr. Narasimhan, founder of AAPI Victory Fund, a super PAC that helps elect Asian-Americans, said the people reaching out to him wanted to know how they could help the Democratic ticket. Indian-American donors who were on the sidelines told him they were ready to help Mr. Biden, and those already involved...

racists

So she is black, Jamaican, Indian-American, and Asian-American, guess her identity changes depending on what group Dems are pandering to today.

The writer definitely doesn't know how Indians function. 😆

How dumb can one get unless they don't understand the accents of Biden & kamala - most detrimental to Hindu/Indian interests !!!

Not likely

When their taxes go up 50% they will definitely be on the sidelines.

All the leftist Indian American may have come out. But there are in the minority. Trump will find regardless of your propaganda.

Haha. Most Asian-Indians I know are conservatives.

This white guy is so tired of the lying white guys in the tarnished Whitehouse. Time for something different and better.

Wait. I thought she was African American.

Journal is trying to divide Asian community!

esaagar should comment on this

Welp, sounds like Nikki Haley will be getting a call in 4 years, lol...

Did they give to her campaign? This means more votes for BidenHarris

As an accelerationist, I agree.

Indian people tend to be conservative.

Indian american money truck was circling DNC office and parked in the parking lot once Kamala Harris was announced running mate. Quite believable.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I heard it was about 3 people.

Been up an hour and 130 likes....that's some real acceleration there...😂😂😂

Increased donations by Indian-Americans, Black Americans, females and mistresses. Truly the perfect pick.

Let’s not obsess about KamalaHarris Indian-Hindu roots. She left that long ago when she decided to become a politician.

I'm Irish -French. Who should I vote for?

Actually not just Indian Americans now came out strong for Biden Harris. White, Black, Latino, Taiwanese Chinese & HK Chinese Americans are all coming out strong for Biden Harris - to save America from Trump & Wuhan coronavirus pandemic.

😂 grasping at this point it’s hysterical

You would be remiss in not covering the big news today - the UAE peace deal that realDonaldTrump brokered

We need the United States to purge the GOP our.

Kamala Harris is a transactional person. She will do and say and become whatever is required to get what it is she wants. And it doesn't matter what she originally thought of Joe Biden. But now that she has the White House in sight, I guess that’s changed.

Oh, my. Y'all really tweeted this?

Indian Americans overwhelmingly support Trump.

😂😂, dream on!

Nah

Why do you not label an expectation that ethnic groups vote for a candidate of the same ethnicity as systemic racism?

Socialism sucks the dreams of entrepreneurship

So we should vote by race?

There is still way to much work to be done. Every day people have to pound the pavement to ensure we end this nightmare.

SethAbramson Cmon you’ve had both. You choose.

Indian American? 1) So are we finished with Dr King's dream about 'content of their character'? 2) The media has a weak mind.

NaphiSoc To say nothing of black women, and women in general. 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀

After Howdy Modi this was inevitable. Look at irony of what is saying: A black woman candidate is being chosen by Democrats to garner Indian American votes in swing States. So nothing to do with 'woman of color' etc....

Never happen

realDonaldTrump KamalaHarris I don’t understand why people are going gaga over Kamla. She is Afro-American not Indian...accept it. Stupidity at its best.

So....she ain't black.

OHIP OHIO OHIO PA PA PA TX TX TX ... home to some of the largest Indian diasporas.

I guess Joe Biden has listened to the radical socialists pressuring him to pick a Black woman as his Vice President so he wouldn’t “lose the election.” That’s all you really need to hear to know what the Left is focused on this election.

Check back in about a week

She was only getting around 3% of votes during the Democrats primaries.

Fake news, what has happen to the WSJ, Biden sniffs kids and Kama knows a mans weak spot

SethAbramson All of which is irrelevant if their votes cannot physically be counted because trump's USPS goon is destroying the apparatus to deliver it.

Nope, Indians earn more than whites, they are not buying her neo-Marxism. I see lots of Indians down at the gun store too.

“Indian-American in battleground states” doesn’t sound very PC...🤠 Maybe try again.

literally no single data point to back it up

she is not likable

If Kamala were able to energize turnout and enthusiasm, wouldn't have she been able to get to 2% during her failed primary run. Seems like she was the only one who couldn't even break 5% in her home state.

she’s got that cop energy

journalismisdead

She is just a mediocre socialist.

Her policies will hurt Indian Americans. People don't just roll over because your Indian and so are they. Such idiocy from the WSJ

QueMala 👎

I hope this is a joke. Right ?

Said [energy] based on what? Her less then 2% in her presidential campaign? 🤣😂🤣🤣😂

Indians are too smart to fall for “but muh race”

Lol

The media sure does like to talk about skin color and hyphenated Americans
