  In the United States, Asian Americans are the fastest-growing group of eligible voters, according to the Pew Research Center. Arkansas has had a 16% increase in Asian voter eligibility in 10 years.

The article from MSN discusses the increasing presence of Indian and Asian Pacific Islander (API) voters in Arkansas, highlighting their growing influence in the state's political landscape. It notes that while Arkansas has traditionally been a predominantly white state, demographic shifts are bringing more diversity, particularly in urban areas like Little Rock. The Indian and API communities are becoming more politically active, with organizations like the Arkansas Asian American Commission and the Indian American Coalition of Arkansas working to increase voter registration and participation. These groups are not only focusing on voter turnout but also on educating these communities about the importance of civic engagement. The article also touches on the challenges these communities face, such as language barriers and cultural differences, but emphasizes the potential impact of their votes in local, state, and national elections. This trend reflects a broader national movement where minority voter turnout is becoming increasingly significant.
