Donald Trump 47th President. The election was preceded by an entire year of campaigning, and a neck-and-neck competition between the Democrats and the Republicans. As Democrat nominee and US Vice-President Kamala Harris and Trump vied for the White House, India became the talk of the election.
With 2.6 million eligible Indian-American voters — according to data from the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace — the Indian diaspora’s growing political significance was felt in key US swing states. These states, which were won by Trump, accounted for a significant number of Indian-American votes.
Data suggested that there was a shift in the attitude of US voters of Indian origin this year. A large number of them shifted from Democratic Party to Republican Party in this election.
Indian-Americans didn’t just leave a mark by casting their votes though. They were also seen making headlines across both popular political parties in the US. From Presidential contenders of Indian origin to several top leaders with India connection, India came in the spotlight.
As this year comes to an end, ET Online recaps how politicians of Indian origin made waves in the US Presidential election.
