Many social media users cheered the local election results for the city of Frisco, Texas, where no candidate of Indian origin had any success. Frisco City Council elections were held May 2 for three positions, including mayor.
While there was no Indian-origin candidate for mayor, there were three Indian Americans on City Council Nos. 5 and 6. “Every candidate with an Indian last name running for election in Frisco is being destroyed. And none of them are in the runoff district,” a viral post on X said.Frisco has been dominating headlines due to its growing Indian-American population and constant attacks on them. Council meetings discussed the Indian issue, protested what they called demographic change, and American Indians resisted this narrative.
Indian-origin Srikanth Reddy (2,402) and Vijay Karthik (5,954) were vying for the fifth spot in the city council but were outdone by Laura Rummel who secured 16,348 votes.Sai Krishnarajangar, another man of Indian descent, was vying for the sixth spot on City Council, which was won by Brittany Colberg.As a post spread on social media cheering the poor performance of Indian Americans, someone explained that this happened because a large number of Indians are not voters because they are on visas.
“Give it 10 years when all Indian kids turn 18 and can vote, every Indian will win!” another wrote.“A lot of people are celebrating the crushing of Indians in the Frisco election. What these people are missing are white candidates who successfully appeased the Indians and ignored H1B abuse. Frisco is not going to get better. One of them even wore an Islamic hijab…” said T-Mobile whistleblower Mark Balaciano, who has been speaking at Frisco City Council meetings.
