Asian Americans in Los Angeles Overwhemingly Supported Obama in 2008

Posted on November 2, 2009 by John

In a recently released study by the Asian Pacific American Legal Center, 63% of Asian American voters supported Barack Obama for president, as reported by the Los Angeles Times. But as usual, Asian American registered voter turnout was below average, with only 71% of Asian American registered voters voting versus the overall 78% of all registered voters in the country casting their ballots. For more information, check out the study (.pdf).
