Latinos Still Not Flocking to Democratic Party

54%

CBS News: “Some 54% of Latino voters plan to vote for a Democratic House candidate in November, and 27% plan to vote for a Republican, with 19% undecided, according to the poll of 3,000 registered Latino voters, which was conducted nationally and across 32 competitive congressional districts ….

Democrats won 60% of the Latino House vote in 2022, 63% in 2020 and 69% in 2018.”
