Will Asian-Americans keep trending Democratic?

[phk]

Possibly, it may level off, but they will be staunchly Dem for a long time

They trended more Democratic from 2000 to 2004.

65-35

As they assimilate more their politics won't vary too mcuh from the mainstream

The most assimilated Asian-Americans, Japanese-Americans are probably the most reliably Democratic.

Asians are largely urban, pro-science, and less Christian than America as a whole. As Republicans try ever harder to be the party of Elmer Gantry, they will continue to lose the Asian vote. Anybody know if Chinese-Americans are like Cubans in having large numbers vote Republican as a holdover from the Cold War?

No.

Vietnamese-Americans are however.

Chinese Americans used to tilt towards the GOP, but thats not really the case anymore (say the last 13 years or so)

Many of the older Chinese-Americans are pretty Republican. But thier kids are usually becoming Democrats in increasing numbers.

I feel Koreans are the most evangelical and most socially conservative asian group out there. At least they are the best at indoctrinating it into their kids. Other younger asians are very socially liberal, mostly because they grew up around socially liberal whites in suburbs. Of course I am speaking from a Californian perspective and things are probably very different in Texas.

Asians just pick up on their surroundings for the most part.

The Koreans in my area are generally very religious and are the exact opposite of the typical ideology of Seattle's nonreligious, fiscally conservative suburbs.

As they are in mine.
