Biden’s final electoral vote is 306. (306 -79) = 227 which is less than 270. Therefore Biden would have lost the 2020 election, if he didn’t have the blacks voting for him at 90% to 10%. That is political clout!
Can AsAms Manage A Similar Amount of Political Clout?
Not the identical amount. However, we can manage a whole lot more political clout, if we shall "cast a bloc vote in a presidential primary election in CA in the future!"
Why in CA? In CA, AsAms have the highest % of vote share - 8%.
Why in a primary? Because only 1/2 to 1/3 of voters vote in a primary. If
all AsAm voters turn out, then our vote share jumps by a factor of 2 to 3,
giving us a vote share of 16% to 24%. With that kind of vote share, if we
cast a bloc vote, then we can control which presidential candidate will win
the CA presidential primary - that will be ample political clout to win equal opportunity for all AsAms, adults and children.

PS: In last week's e-newsletter, I forgot to state that 80-20 used to hire an accountant to do our IRS filing. Later, 80-20 was fortunate enough to get an AsAm accountant to volunteer to do that job. In recent years, our Treasurer, Wei-jing Zhu, has handled that time-consuming job.
