I'm curious to hear Hindu-American perspectives on the upcoming November election. I think many of us have been dismayed and angered by the callous attitude demonstrated by the #Democrats on #Kashmir, CAA, Modi, and Hindus in general. It seems as if they take our votes for granted and expect us to fall in line as brown immigrants and the descendants of brown immigrants. What are your thoughts?

I would still encourage people to vote democrat because you still have centrists like Biden and Harris. And you do not want to give hard left all the playing field. Unless Republicans fix Green Card issue and fast tract Indian Americans on Green Card Waitlist.
There is also negative stories on Hindus because Modi and Trump. US mainstream hates Trump, and since Modi loving Hindus are pro Trump, they must be shamed. Coverage that Modi got during Obama was very positive. The PR was next level during Obama time because Modi/Obama had great personal chemistry. Modi shared stage with Zukerberrg, Elon Musk and even shared stage with Hugh Jackman in 2015
Although I am on the fence with Biden/Harris, if you want to see Hinduism being promoted in MSM with positive stories, Biden/Harris will have to win. Its pure politics. Harris mother is a hindu, there was alot of joy amongst "liberal" indian community about celebrating diwali on lawns of WH, Holi in WH, etc.
