18. There is probably some geographic variance at play here

Big diverse cities with lots of Indian people might increase the likelihood of having good Indian restaurants. People who live there might be more liberal.

Younger Dems might be more likely to have Indian friends or enjoy a nice Indian meal while older Dems might think we're H-1bs. I'm Indian-American, born in the USA but am still most definitely coming to steal your job. It would be interesting to polls Trump supporters on this.

There are also variances among Indian-Americans with younger ones supporting Warren or Sanders while older ones think Biden is the safer choice.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
