Dear Mr. Sarupen,
How are you today? I am a retired university professor from the United States. I do research on Indian South African politics. Let me start by thanking you for your service at such a critical time in your country's political history. My best man is a South African and I have traveled there several times for both business and holiday.

I am trying to find news articles or academic publications that discuss how Indian South Africans voted in the May elections. Would you be able to direct me to these kinds of publications? I would also welcome your own insights to the Indian vote this year. I eagerly await your own response.

Respectfully,
Vernon D. Johnson
