Indian American Vote: Can The Diaspora Swing The US Midterm Elections? | NDTV World
The Indian American community is emerging as an increasingly influential force in US politics, with its voters, candidates and campaign donors playing a significant role in the 2026 midterm elections. As Democrats and Republicans battle for control of Congress, NDTV examines how the diaspora's political preferences are evolving, why immigration and H-1B visas, tariffs, affordability and concerns over anti-Indian hate are shaping the vote, and whether Indian American voters could influence key races. The show also tracks Indian-origin candidates contesting congressional seats, the growing Somoza Caucus, and the divide between the community's reported Democratic leanings and major donations flowing to Republican groups.
