US presidential election heads for a photo finish, Democratic nominee Kamala Harris, the daughter of Indian and Jamaican immigrants, has been counting on groundswell of support from the Indian-American community in most of the pivotal battleground states. For a sizable number of Indian Americans, Vice President Harris's race to the White House is a momentous occasion as it is propelling the community into a notable force in the American political discourse.
«It is a matter of pride that a leader of Indian-descent is fighting the US presidential election,» said Dr Vasudev Patel, general secretary of the Federation of Indian-American Association of Georgia.
Georgia is one of the seven key battleground states and Patel says the Indian-American community could play a significant role in swinging the election in Harris's favour.
«I voted for Trump last time. But this time, I am going to support Kamala Harris,» said Saurabh Gupta, a technocrat who grew up in Delhi and is now a resident of Montgomery County in Maryland.
If Harris wins the race, then it will be the first time in the US history that a candidate of Indian heritage would occupy the top office of the most powerful country on the planet.
