An Indian-American publication in Bay area has endorsed the United States presidential candidate for the first time in three decades. The monthly publication urged its readers to vote for the Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.  

The Indian-American publication 'India Currents' said in an editorial that, it supported Ms. Clinton as it felt "intense outrage" after resurfacing an old video of the New York billionaire and the Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.

A joint editorial written by Nirupama Vaidhyananthan, the editor of the magazine and publisher Vandana Kumar said that, "For the first time in 30 years, we are endorsing a presidential nominee--Hillary Clinton to be the next President."   

The editorial said that, "The right to vote is both a duty and a privilege, and is especially so in this election which I am dubbing the -ism election. Racism and sexism have been in full display,"

"Even Mr and Mrs India would have heard about the video this election cycle -- the one where Trump bragged about making unwanted sexual advances," it said.
