Re: “I remember when the east side was conservative.”

Bellevue is now 33.3% foreign born.

Asian Indians are the leading ethnic group.

In 2008, they voted 90% for Obama, here, and nationally.

White voters are not quite that bad, but bad enough at about 70% Democrat.

The only “Republican” elected in my Congressional District is white state senator who co-sponsored our gay marriage legislation.

Senegal retired from Costco a year or 2 ago.

Costco is like other large companies - unfortunately, it has those at the top that are libs, but there are many workers at the company that are conservatives. I have a few friends that work at Costco and all are conservatives and they tell me some of their co-workers are as well.

Celebrate lack of voting diversity!

Pretty surprised the Asian Indians would swing left - although I work in the tax dept of a Fortune 500 company and am pretty shocked at how many Obama lovers there were among well educated intelligent young professionals. I suppose it was considered the socially acceptable thing to do.

Re: “Pretty surprised the Asian Indians would swing left”

According to Pew Research, they are the most Hard Left immigrant ethnic group in America.

They are also the best educated and highest paid ethnic group.

The Pew Research data was 90% Left in 2008.

I have not seen a number for 2012.

Historically, in India, they have been knee deep in Marxism since at least World War II.

I have seen two different GOP Congressmen publicly advocate for higher immigrant quotas for Asian Indians.

I can only shake my head in disbelief.

Asian Indians have displaced hundreds of thousands of highly trained American born IT workers.

They have caused wage stagnation in several IT sectors.

And they consistently vote against the principles that Conservatives stand for.

Hi, neighbor, too.

I lived in Queen Anne in 2004-2005.

I walked by your street corner several times a week going to and from work.

Interesting fact:

During the 2004 election, I saw only one car in Seattle with a Bush bumper sticker, and it was always parked in your neighborhood.

My sister works in IT in Bellevue and has to work with these people. She doesn’t like it. Doesn’t like them so much and besides their food stinks.

Wasn’t me. Would have had my Sonata keyed when I drove to dates in Fremont.
