“especially Asian-American voters”
I think this is what happened in my neighborhood. I live in Cypress, Orange County Ca and we had an Asian running for state assembly Young Kim and I believe a lot of Asians showed up at the polls to vote for her. The results was the incumbent Quirk-Silva (D) was defeated.
Also part of this was the Congessional race with the dim Lowenthal the incumbant. There were no signs of ads in this race whatsoever. In fact I did not know who the Republican was until the ballots showed up. I don’t think either party put much money into either side. Well come Wednesday morning the Republican had pulled it out. Just Amazing. I think it was because of Kim running.
Thank-you for your report. This gives me cheer. As an American of Asian descent, I bristle, when ordinarily hard-working, law abiding fellow Asians, are such boners when it comes to political class.
I watch a lot of Korean dramas and they emphasize that civil servants would not be able to EAT, if it were not for the sacrifices of the citizens who sacrifice for them, so they better be ethical and work hard. This is how the responsibilities for the government offices should be framed.
