AsAmNews is the place where you can find results from Asian American and Pacific Islander candidates in one convenient location.
A team of reporters from New York to Maui will be monitoring vote results beginning at 8 p.m. Eastern time until 5 a.m. Eastern the following morning.
Veteran Emmy and Peabody Award-winning reporter Ti-Hua Chang will be stationed at Howard University in Washington, D.C. where Vice President Kamala Harris will be with supporters for what they hope will be an historic night- the election of the first Asian American, Indian American and women president of the United States.
We have also identified more than 40 Congressional races where AAPI candidates are running for both parties. You can find the vote results here.
In addition, we’ve will be tracking about a half dozen state races. We understand that this list is by no means complete. If there are any races you’d like to see us track, we may be able to do that for you. Email us at info at asamnews dot com.
We will also follow the recall election of Sheng Thao, the first Hmong American mayor in the United States.
