US Presidential Election - Trump asked Muslims for votes, what is the stand of Hindus?

US Presidential Election: There is only one week left in the US presidential election, and as the election day is getting closer, the challenge for Vice President and Democratic candidate Kamala Harris seems to be increasing. In the final phase of the campaign, Republican candidate Donald Trump is seen taking a lead in the surveys, which is increasing the concern of Harris and the Democrats.

Close contest and support of Muslim community

This time the election is likely to be very close, and both the candidates are busy in ensuring the support of their respective communities. While Trump used to talk about a national register for Muslims in his first term, now he is openly seeking support from Muslim and Arab Americans. In a rally held in Michigan last week, some Muslim leaders have also expressed support for Trump, which is a challenging sign for the Democrats.

Attitude of Hindu community and concern of Democrats

The Indian-American community, which has voted in large numbers in support of Joe Biden in 2020, is now gradually leaning towards the Republicans. According to the Indian-American Attitudes Survey (IAAS), 61% of Indian-Americans still support Kamala Harris, while 31% are in favor of Trump. However, Biden got 68% of the Indian-American vote in 2020, due to which the Democrats are now facing a decline in support.

Enthusiasm for Harris among women voters

Kamala Harris is getting special support among women, especially young women. This support is being seen in women voters of almost all ages, while there is a division among male voters. Older male voters are supporting Harris, but Trump's support is increasing among young men, which is creating an advantage for the Republicans.

Declining Indian-American support for Democrats

The support of the Indian-American community for the Democrats seems to be falling compared to the 2020 election. While earlier 68% Indian-Americans supported Biden, now this number has come down to 61%, while Trump's support has increased to 31%. Along with this, the number of Indian-Americans who consider themselves Democrats supporters has also decreased, from 56% to 47%. This decline is further increasing the concerns of the Democratic Party.

Key issues: Abortion and economy

The most important issue for Indian-Americans in this election remains the right to abortion, which is also a major part of the Democratic campaign. Apart from this, there are concerns in the Indian-American community about the economy, to which Trump has also paid special attention and he has been successful to some extent in managing it. Trump's support on economic reforms and tax policy is increasing the trust in him among Indian-Americans.

Conclusion

This time the competition in the US presidential election is tough, in which the stance of the Indian-American community can be decisive. While Kamala Harris's support appears to be strong among women, Trump's support appears to be increasing among young male voters. Apart from this, both Trump and Harris are focused on major issues like abortion and economy, which is making this election more competitive.
