Donald Trump has used the issue of immigration to help make himself the front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination, but his harsh rhetoric also has earned him the highest negative ratings among Hispanic voters of any major GOP hopeful, according to a Washington Post-Univision News poll.
...
Today, 8 in 10 Hispanic voters have an unfavorable view of Trump. That includes more than 7 in 10 who have a âvery unfavorableâ impression of him, which is more than double the percentage of any other major candidate.
Those findings compare with a Univision survey taken around the time of Trumpâs announcement last summer, when just more than 7 in 10 had a negative view of him and fewer than 6 in 10 said they had a âvery unfavorableâ impression.
Should Trump become the Republican nominee, his current low standing among Hispanic voters could jeopardize the partyâs hopes of winning the general election in November. In current matchups with Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton, Trump scores worse among Hispanics than any of the three other leading Republican candidates â Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and Ohio Gov. John Kasich.

Seeing a pattern. The higher the “negatives” the higher the vote count from the demo in question.
“You can oppose illegal immigration without smearing illegal immigrants as “rapists”, as Trump did. Calling Cruz an “anchor baby” and questioning Rubio’s eligibility does not help either. It is no wonder that Trump’s negatives among Hispanics are so high. They get to vote, too. “
Then go vote for Jeb.
The Washington Post is a communists piece of crap. Believe nothing from this rag.
Trump for President
he did quite well with the Latinos that voted in the Republican caucus.. the vast majority of Latino voters in the state did not vote for Trump
If the Washington Post ever chose to post just the truth their paper would consist of only ads for hemorrhoid creams.
I wonder how Trump polls among non-Hispanic whites who still make up close to 70% of the voters?
NYT Reporter called for Trump’s assasination on Twitter, Washington Post, NRO-TDS..this is war
Illegals who are criminals here. Not all Hispanics or those here legally.
Against to Hispanic contenders to boot!
Trump wins with Latino voters in NV caucus:

- marco rubio 29%
- ted cruz 18%
Trumps negatives across the board are higher than any Presidential candidate in history.
Actually, just the opposite is happening! Go Trump!

And the narrative changes! Now, it's a given that the wall is coming. The battle now is over who will pay for it.
LOL!
PS, somebody smarter than I can please do the "linky" thing for me, or post as a separate thread. Thanks!
The poll was probably taken in Mexico.
“..and easily wins the hispanic vote in Nevada”
Out of the like 20% of Hispanics who voted for the Republicans, he won like 50% of that. It doesn’t take a mathematician to figure out it was a really low number of Hispanics.
The enemedia has made a grave mistake. They have ALL become non-believable.
I expect they would be the highest because their not poling just the legal ones.
Good thing Trump does not need a SINGLE “Hispanic” vote. Only WHITES.
The Trump bashers are working for Sanders.
For Sanders ...just use BS for short.. it fits well
The Hispanic vote for the Republican caucus in Nevada. What percentage of Republicans are Hispanic in that state?
