With the way Asian children are screwed by “affirmative action” in university admissions, why they prefer Democrats has remained a mystery to me.
Democrats are good at picking out easily manipulated Asian-American political wannabes and promoting them to the status of "community leader", eventually leading to some low elected office. Since Republicans don't pay any particular attention to recruiting these individuals, they subsequently make a lot of noise about how Democrats represent "our community's values" (IOW, their egos).
Foreign-born voters often listen to these token wannabes rather than making their own decisions. They want to feel "represented" in their new land. and Democrats are experts at faking sincerity.
