Hillary Clinton holds a massive advantage over Donald Trump among Asian-Americans who are registered to vote, according to the results of a National Asian American Survey to be released Wednesday afternoon.

Clinton trounces Trump among Asian-Americans with 55 percent support to the real estate mogul’s 14 percent support. Eight percent of registered Asian-American voters favor another candidate.


Among the 16 percent who are undecided, 7-in-10 lean toward Clinton, while just 20 percent are closer to backing Trump and the remaining 10 percent are likely to support another candidate.

Clinton’s lead over Trump among Asian-Americans is in part because more than 4-in-10 registered voters surveyed identify as Democrats. An equal amount, however, consider themselves nonpartisan, while just 16 percent said they’re Republicans.

In 2012, 35 percent of registered Asian-American voters identified as Democrats, 18 percent Republican and 47 percent nonpartisan.

More than half of the registered voters in Wednesday’s poll view Trump “very unfavorably.” More than two-thirds see him unfavorably — a combination of a “very unfavorable” and “somewhat unfavorable” view — while less a quarter see him as either somewhat or very favorable.

A majority of Asian Indian, Cambodian, Chinese, Filipino, Hmong, Japanese and Korean Americans all view Trump “very” unfavorably. Only one-fourth of Vietnamese Americans, however, see Trump as “very unfavorable,” while an additional 24 percent see him “very favorably.”

Nearly 60 percent of Asian-American registered voters view Clinton favorably, while 36 percent see her unfavorably.

The survey of 1,694 registered Asian-American voters was conducted Aug. 10–Sept. 29 via landline and cellphones. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.
