Most climate finance in India flows to large projects and large borrowers.

In 2020, 72% of Indian Americans voted for Biden. In 2026, the Carnegie Endowment found Democratic identification has fallen from 52% to 46%, independence has risen to nearly one-third, and support for third-party candidates has doubled.
