Indian Americans turn to Democrats ahead of midterms. Why Trump is losing ground

Recent surveys indicate a shift among Indian American voters toward supporting Democratic candidates in the upcoming U.S. midterm elections, signaling potential challenges for Republicans. This trend follows broader disapproval of President Donald Trump, whose approval ratings among Indian Americans have declined despite their initial support during the 2024 presidential election. According to the 2026 Asian American Voter Survey, over two-thirds of Indian American voters plan to support Democrats in both Senate and House races, contrasting sharply with Republican support levels. The survey also highlights high voter turnout intentions within the Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) community, with around 90% of registered respondents planning to vote. Discontent with Trump's policies on immigration, economic issues, trade, and U.S.-India relations contributes to this shift.
