How Will Latino Vote in the 2024 Election

Published

Latino voters lean toward Trump, 2024 election

According to Clarissa Martínez-de-Castro, vice president of UnidosUS’s Latino Vote Initiative, Latino voters will play a “decisive role” in the 2024 presidential election.

Martínez-de-Castro suggested that their impact is likely to be enhanced because they are “geographically concentrated” in both battleground states and states with a lot of Electoral College votes, with roughly 25% participating in their first presidential election.

According to recent polls, the race between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, the Democratic and Republican presumed presidential nominees, is tight. A Marist National Poll of 1,192 registered voters conducted in mid-April gave Biden a three-point lead in a head-to-head matchup, with 51% of the vote against Trump’s 48%. However, a Public Opinion Strategies poll for NBC News done during the same time period found Trump at 46% to Biden’s 44%.

Martínez-de-Castro told Newsweek that Latinos will play a significant role in the 2024 election. They play a vital role in the winning formula for the White House, Congressional balance of power, and several state and municipal elections.

“Latinos are geographically concentrated in states with a high number of primary delegates and Electoral College votes (California, Florida, New York, and Texas), electoral battlegrounds (Arizona and Nevada), or both. Furthermore, given razor-thin margins of victory, even in battleground states with lower Latino populations—such as Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin—these voters have the potential to change the outcome.”

According to figures gathered by UnidosUS, 31.2 million Hispanic Americans of voting age participated in the 2022 midterm elections, with 18 million registered to vote and 11.8 million casting ballots.

Latino voter registration for 2024 Election

Martínez-de-Castro noted that expanding Latino voter registration might significantly impact the 2024 election race. He stated that it is common for Latinos to report that no one had approached them about voting or urged them to register.

She said, “Building on the fact that more than 80% of Latino registered voters vote in presidential elections (88 percent in 2020), a critical opportunity is addressing the registration gap, which is 13 million and growing.”

“Yet, underinvestment and ineffective outreach to these people continue, exacerbated by incorrect perceptions about this constituency. Much of the work to reduce the registration gap has been left to nonpartisan, nonprofit organizations, who have received little money, especially when contrasted to the expenditures seen during each election cycle.”

UnidosUS commissioned BSP Research to conduct a poll of 3,037 eligible Latino voters in the United States from November 2 to 13, 2023.

According to the survey, 47 percent approved of Biden’s performance as president, while 44 percent disagreed and nine percent said “don’t know.”

In all, 48 percent said they felt the Democrats “cared a great deal” about the Latino population, while 41 percent said they “don’t care much” and 11 percent called them “hostile.”

In comparison, only 25% thought Republicans “care a great deal” about Latinos, while 48% said they “don’t care much” and 26% saw them as “hostile.”

Hispanic Voters Shifting Away from Democrats

According to current research, Hispanic voters, defined as individuals having origins in a Spanish-speaking country and the majority of whom are Latino, are shifting away from the Democratic Party.

For example, a recent American Principles Project/On Message study of Hispanic voters in Arizona and Nevada found Trump and Biden tied with 43 percent and 44 percent, respectively.

Martínez-de-Castro acknowledged “erosion” in Latino support for the Democrats, but disputed media accounts that exaggerated the trend.

She stated, “Generally, at the presidential level, Latino voter support has averaged about two-thirds for Democrats and one-third for Republicans.” The combined average of all available election-eve and exit poll data from 1988 to 2020 is 29 percent Republican support and 67 percent Democratic support.

“The top point for Republicans was George W. Bush in 2000 (40 percent), whereas for Democrats, depending on the polling source, Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, or Hillary Clinton all received more than 70 percent. Democrats gained much of the Latino support that Republicans lost over the last decade. But Democrats did not solidify that support in their column, so Republicans are regaining some of those votes.”

Martínez-de-Castro stated that a November 2023 UnidosUS poll revealed that Latino voters prioritize a well-managed immigration system with border security.

“Where immigration is concerned, the top priorities for action for Latino voters are relief for the long-residing undocumented population and for Dreamers/DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) recipients,” she said in a statement.

On the central subject of abortion, the UnidosUS poll revealed that 71% of Latino voters either strongly or somewhat agreed with the statement that “no matter what my personal beliefs about abortion are, I think it is wrong to make abortion illegal and take that choice away from everyone else.”

Democrats Now Leaderless After Trump Presidential Win

Published

Democrats Leaderless After Trump Presidential Win

Democrats spent billions of dollars with the legacy media to try and create fear among American voters that Donald Trump posed an imminent threat to democracy; in the end, voters didn’t care. They chose to believe their own eyes and not the rhetoric.

Following Kamala Harris’ decisive loss, the Democrats are now entering a second Trump presidency without a clear leader, a clear plan, or an accord on the reasons for their significant miscalculations in the 2024 election.

Sen. Bernie Sanders, the Vermont independent and former Democratic primary candidate, had warned Harris before Election Day that she was focusing too much on flipping Republican votes and not enough on pocketbook issues. He issued a statement excoriating party leadership.

“It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them,” he said. “First, it was the white working class, and now it is Latino and Black workers as well.

While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change. And they’re right.”

Trump’s promises to impose tariffs on both allies and foes and his threats to American businesses contemplating the relocation of jobs offshore were alluring to union workers.

Alexandra Rojas, the executive director of the far-left Justice Democrats, told AP that the party’s leadership must “accept responsibility for that a second”Donald Trump presidency was once again feasible under their supervision.”

Rojas charged that the Democratic Party is los”ng legitimacy among the everyday people and marginalized communities, who are continuously used as stepping stones to win elections. She also acknowledged that “there are no easy answers for where we as a coun”ry and movement go from here.”

The data indicates that Democrats have” substantial work to do.

Faiz Shakir, the Democratic strategist who oversaw Sanders’ 2020 presidential campaign, is concerned that Sanders’s Democratic Party will fail to engage in the necessary introspection after this catastrophic defeat.

He asserted that “a healthy party is challenging itself to conduct”that type of autopsy and hear what we did wrong.” “I am not even aware that such a process will occur. He asks, “Will the Democratic Party’s well-paid consultant and big-money interParty learn any real lessons from this disastrous campaign?”

“Will they comprehend the political alienation and pain that tens of millions of Americans are currently experiencing?” Do they have any suggestions for how we can confront the Oligarchy, which is gaining economic and political influence at an accelerated pace? It is unlikely, he said.

Kamala Concession Speech Trends on Google

Kamala Concession Speech

One day after former President Donald Trump’s historic re-election, Vice President Kamala Harris conceded the presidential race and vowed to maintain unity. Her concession speech trended on Google with over 5 million searches.

“I do not concede the fight that fueled this campaign, but I do concede this election.” She stated, “In our nation, we owe loyalty not to a president or a party, but to the Constitution of the United States.”

Kamala Harris acknowledged that there was no viable strategy for obtaining the presidency even though her speech was not what she intended.

In the center of Washington, DC, Harris delivered a speech at her alma mater, Howard University. Harris expressed her gratitude to the hundreds of campaign workers and volunteers who worked assiduously on her campaign and to the tens of millions of voters who cast their votes for her.

Kamala Harris also stated that the country should unite for a peaceful power transfer despite the agony of losing.

She said, “We must acknowledge the outcomes of this election.” “I conversed with President-elect Trump earlier today and congratulated him on his victory.”

I also informed him that we would assist him and his team during his transition and participate in a peaceful transfer of power.

In the interim, Sen. Bernie Sanders issued a caustic statement regarding the presidential election results, accusing the Democratic Party of having “abandoned” working-class voters. It’s unsurprising that “a Democratic Party that has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them.”

Sanders, who secured re-election last night, stated that the party’s white working-class voters were the first to quit and that it now appears that Latino and Black workers are following suit. “The American people are enraged and desire change despite the Democratic leadership’s defense of the status quo,” he stated. “And they’re right.”

Trump and Vance were also congratulated on their electoral victory by former President Obama, who ardently campaigned for Harris in the final stretch before Election Day. This was announced in a statement published today.

“This is obviously not the outcome we had hoped for, given our profound disagreements with the Republican ticket on a whole host of issues,” according to him. “But living in a democracy is about recognizing that our point of view won’t always win out, and being willing to accept the peaceful transfer of power.”

Despite All the Odds Donald Trump Elected 47th President

Donald Trump Elected President
Donald Trump was elected the 47th president of the United States.

On Wednesday, Donald Trump was elected the 47th president of the United States, a remarkable turnaround for a former president who refused to concede defeat four years ago.

Trump achieved the 270 electoral votes required to secure the presidency with a victory in Wisconsin. On Wednesday afternoon, he emerged victorious in Michigan, conquering the “blue wall” with Pennsylvania.

On Wednesday afternoon, Vice President Kamala Harris contacted President-Elect Trump to congratulate her and acknowledge his victory in the election. Shortly thereafter, Vice President Biden conversed with Trump to extend his congratulations and invitation to the White House.

Foreign leaders like French President Emmanuel Macron and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also phoned Trump.

“I would like to express my gratitude to the American people for the extraordinary honor of being elected as your 47th and 45th president,” Trump addressed a crowd of enthusiastic supporters in Florida before officially confirming their victory.

“Today, you demonstrated unprecedented attendance to secure a victory, and we have endured an immense amount of hardship together,” Trump said. This was truly exceptional, and we will repay you,” he added.

Upon his return to office, Trump will collaborate with a Senate that is now under Republican control, while the House’s governance remains uncertain.

Elon Musk’s Tesla, banks, cryptocurrencies, and the U.S. stock market all surged Wednesday as investors anticipated a smooth election and Trump’s return to the White House.

Trump has pledged to implement an agenda that prioritizes the substantial revamping of the federal government during his second term.

When Trump assumes office on January 20, he will face various challenges, such as global crises testing America’s influence abroad and heightened political polarization.

Trump has pledged to revolutionize nearly every facet of the American government. This encompasses the intention to initiate the most extensive deportation operation in the nation’s history, once more pursue a zero-sum approach to foreign policy, and increase the use of tariffs.

Upon his arrival in Washington in 2017, Trump was unfamiliar with the mechanisms of federal authority. Congress, the judiciary, and senior staff members who acted as guardrails impeded his agenda.

This time, Trump has declared that he will surround himself with allies who will execute his agenda without question and arrive with hundreds of proposed executive orders, legislative proposals, and in-depth policy papers.
