diverse voters of the potomac primary

A lot of people will be directing their attention to the "Potomac Primary" today, the latest battle in the race for the Democratic nomination... Here's an interesting Washington Post story looking at the impact of the area's diverse population of immigrants (one in five Washington residents is foreign born) and their U.S.-born adult children: Voices as Diverse as Their Backgrounds. The article includes some snapshots of young people who are mobilizing the vote effort, like Dave Kumar of "South Asians for Obama" and Annabel Park of 9500 Liberty. Get out and vote, my friends.
