Four years ago, a mocking remark made by Republican Sen. David Perdue at a Donald Trump rally sparked a call to action for Kannan Udayarajan, a 42-year-old leader in the Forsyth County Democratic Party. Perdue's mispronunciation of Kamala Harris' name ignited Udayarajan's determination to stand up against such behavior and mobilize his community.
Located about 30 miles northeast of Atlanta, Forsyth County has seen a significant increase in its Asian American population over the past two decades, mirroring a trend in neighboring counties. These voters are poised to play a crucial role in the upcoming election, particularly in support of Kamala Harris.
