Asian American voters continue to show support for President Joe Biden, though his approval has waned since the 2020 election, according to the 2024 Asian American Voter Survey, the longest-running survey of Asian American voters conducted by the Asian and Pacific Islander American Vote (APIAVote), AAPI Data, Asian Americans Advancing Justice – AAJC and AARP.
- Key findings: The survey reveals that 46% of Asian American voters are likely to support Biden, a decline from 54% in 2020. Meanwhile, 31% express support for Trump, showing little change from the previous election’s 30%. Despite Biden’s declining support, the Democratic Party still maintains a lead in preference for House and Senate candidates. The voters’ most critical issues include the economy (86%), inflation (85%), healthcare (85%), crime (80%) and education (80%). A significant portion (68%) also reported concerns about hate crimes and discrimination.
- How the survey was conducted: The survey polled 2,479 Asian American voters through a mix of online and phone interviews. Among them, 42% identify as Democrats, 22% as Republicans and 31% as Independents. Read the full survey here.
