While President Obama's fundraiser at Oakland's Fox Theater will be the marquee event during his East Bay fundraising swing Monday, the big financial players will be at the Piedmont home of Wayne Jordan and Quinn Delaney, who have quietly become two of California's major campaign donors.

A centerpiece of the couple's community work is the Akonadi Foundation in Oakland. Delaney, a lawyer and activist, founded the organization 12 years ago and serves as its president, while Jordan is its secretary-treasurer.

I know a lot of conservative Asians, and they are far more conservative than whites (more than half of which put Obama in office).Sadly, many Asians look down on Blacks while looking at whites as equals, and aren't that likely to vote for Obama (but that's a racial divide, separate from conservatism). From your link:
"However, merely a few hundred Asians filled out the long questionnaire used in the national Edison-Mitofsky poll."
A few hundred peopled sampled, do not make for a meaningful sampling. Where did they sample them, outside Democrat union halls?
