As the United States presidential election gets closer, the Indian-American community has also joined in to voice their support for Democratic leader, Kamala Harris. A Hindi campaign song titled "Nacho Nacho" was released by Indian-American community leader Ajay Bhutoria. 

Excited to share the release of our new music video, 'Nacho Nacho,' supporting @VP Kamala Harris for President! Let’s mobilize and turn out the South Asian vote in key battleground states @DNC @CNN @ABC @maddow @aajtak @ndtvindia @IndiaToday @republic pic.twitter.com/x92vns4gH8

The campaign song has been inspired by the Oscar-winning “Natu Natu” from the movie ‘RRR’ and was performed by Bollywood singer Shibani Kashyap. In the video, several Indian-Americans call to “vote for Kamala Harris” in the November 5 election.

Bhutoria told NDTV that “Nacho Nacho” was a movement and not just a song. He said that the campaign aims to connect with the diverse South Asian-American community “across battleground states and key districts.” He said that the “goal is to help propel Vice President Kamala Harris to victory in 2024”.

"In 2020, we made history by electing the first woman of South Asian and African American descent as Vice President. Now, in 2024, it's time to make her our next President," he was quoted by NDTV.

If Kamala Harris wins, she will be the first woman to become the country's president in the US's 248-year history.

She was nominated as the Democratic candidate after US President Joe Biden withdrew from the presidential race following growing concerns about his age, especially after the disastrous debate with former president and Republican rival Donald Trump in June.

Trump Harris Neck And Neck Show Polls 

According to pre-poll surveys released on Sunday, the presidential race is currently neck-and-neck, as per an AFP report. This came just two days before Harris and Trump’s first and likely only televised debate. 

The latest polling confirms that Trump retains locked-in support from about half of voters, despite the Republican's historic status as a convicted felon and his role in instigating the unprecedented attempt to overturn his 2020 loss to Joe Biden, reported AFP. Though Harris rapidly transformed herself from a little-noticed vice president into a serious contender, the polls show she has not made a major breakthrough, leaving the race a toss-up.
