Democrats face challenges as Latino voters shift support to Trump

independent.co.uk

Latino voters have shifted significantly towards Donald Trump, surprising many analysts. This change is attributed to educational polarization, with less-educated voters more likely to support Trump, despite concerns over his immigration policies. Democrats are struggling to understand this shift, with some commentators expressing frustration. They argue that many Latino voters feel disconnected from the immigrant experience and believe they won't be affected by Trump's policies. The Democratic Party faces challenges in regaining Latino support, especially in key states like Texas and Nevada. Analysts warn that treating Latino voters as a monolithic group may have contributed to their losses in recent elections.
