Understanding the AAPI Voting Bloc with Axios’ Niala Boodhoo
05/29/24 • 37 min
We often separate voting blocs by race — we talk about “the Black vote,” “the Latino vote,” “the White vote,” “the Asian-American vote.” but in reality, these are all big — often disparate — groups of people. So this week, to close out Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islanders Month, we wanted to do a deep dive on the AANHPI voting bloc. Niala Boodhoo, host of Axios’ 1 big thing, helps us understand this voting bloc.
