Asian Americans: The Undecided Vote

15 October 2008 2 Comments

You can’t ignore it, nor should you. The elections are coming up and your vote as an Asian American matters! Asian Americans could be the deciding vote in some swing states. According to the National Asian American Survey, “the study found 41 percent of Asian Americans are likely to vote for Barack Obama, 24 percent support John McCain and 34 percent are undecided.”

If you don’t know who to vote for, or have a friend or relative in a swing state who is undecided or unaware of the candidate’s views, send them this quiz: Glassbooth.org. Glassbooth claims to be nonpartisan, nonprofit organization that is unaffiliated with any political ideologies, political party or organization. The quiz is quick and just as easy as the quizzes on Facebook, Cosmopolitan or Maxim you’re always taking at work anyway.

    Glassbooth is suppose to be pretty bi-partisan. I just took the quiz. Obama agrees with 79% of my beliefs. Guess I know who I’m voting for. Yay internet! Before only the TV use to tell me what to do.

    ^^ Glad you took the quiz. I scored about the same.

    There was a question that asks about limiting the number of media outlets that a single corporation can own within individual media markets. People don’t seem to grasp the importance of this. The more outlets a single corp owns, the more they can control our perspectives.

    Three cheers for the internet!
