“Leticia van de Putte”
Didn’t even consider that she’s the only Hispanic running in the big 3 races here, and she’s running against the most conservative person on Amnesty, and she’s still barely treading water with Hispanics.
The Dems keep telling us that the HISPANICS ARE COMING!! and will take over (and hence the Democrats) - but they are far from a lock for the Dems. In fact, the white vote (in favor or Republicans) is more lopsided than the Hispanic vote is for Dems. And, again, the one Republican who’s making his opposition to Amnesty the centerpiece of his campaign is doing the best with Hispanics (out of the 3 Republicans).
This is not a surprise.
I have seen two polls of legal Hispanics. In both, they opposed amnesty by about 2-to-1 (roughly 60/32). And, why not, they are legal, they are Americans!
There is, indeed, a lesson here for the GOP-e on how to claim a larger share of the Hispanic vote.
