NY Times: “Ashwin Ramaswami, a Democrat running for a Georgia State Senate seat, grew up in a wealthy stretch of Atlanta suburbs transformed by the tech industry and waves of Indian American immigrants, like his parents, who have settled there.
It is a part of the American South where the percentage of adults with a bachelor’s degree is significantly higher than the national average. Mr. Ramaswami, 25, fits right in, with a computer science degree from Stanford and a law degree from Georgetown.
He was still in law school when he realized that the state senator for his hometown, Johns Creek, was among the 18 people indicted last year with former President Donald J. Trump on charges that they had illegally interfered with the 2020 election results in Georgia.
That is when Mr. Ramaswami decided to run for office.”
