Desi Voters, COVID-19, and the 2020 Election: Episode 10 of our Podcast Series, “A Better Life?”

In New Jersey, the number of voters with roots in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and other Asian countries is growing six times faster than the general voting population. Yet, despite the potential for more power at the ballot box, longtime divisions are surfacing over religion, economic status and country of origin.
