Several social media users cheered the local election results of Frisco, a city in Texas, as no Indian-origin candidates saw any success. The Frisco city council elections were on May 2 for three positions, including the mayor position. While there was no Indian-origin candidate for the mayor position, there were three Indian-Americans for City Council Place 5 and 6. "Every candidate with an Indian last name running for an election in Frisco is getting destroyed. None are in runoff territory," a viral post on X read.
Frisco has been dominating headlines for its growing Indian-origin population and the relentless attack on them. Council meetings discussed Indians, and protested what they called a changing demography and Indian-Americans resisted the narrative.
