  • Gabbard, a Democrat, however, neither confirmed nor denied Shivangi's statement.

    A decision on this could be taken before Christmas, which might not necessarily result in a formal announcement, sources said.

    However, it's said that she and her team have quietly been reaching out to prospective donors, including a large number of Indian-Americans, to build an impressive campaign for her 2020 run.

  • Given that Gabbard is highly popular among Indian-Americans, a constituency she has nurtured from the very beginning of her political career, it is but natural that her team has quietly started reaching out to this community, which is considered as the richest ethnic group after the Jewish Americans.

    And in many critical States, Indian-Americans can play an important role in her electoral chances.
