There is more good news on the topic of Hispanic voters from the recent Texas statewide elections for Governor and Lieutenant Governor won by Republicans Greg Abbott and Dan Patrick, respectively.

– All Latino voters: Patrick 46, Abbott 44

– Latino men: Patrick 53, Abbott 49

– Latino women: Patrick 40, Abbott 39

Both Abbott and Patrick stressed increased border security and ending benefits for illegal aliens in their campaign platforms.

Dan Patrick was especially forceful on the issue of illegal immigration. Note that he actually won a majority of the Hispanic male votes. That is very encouraging!

Working Hispanics are harmed by illegals like every other working American is. They don’t want what Ojuanbo is doing to this country, and to the futures of their families.
