The nation’s large and diverse group of Hispanic voters is showing signs of dividing its support between Democrats and Republicans more evenly than in recent elections, a new Wall Street Journal poll finds, a troubling development for the Democratic Party, which has long counted on outsize Hispanic support.
One year after giving Democratic House candidates more than 60% of their vote, according to polls at the time, the Journal survey found that Hispanic voters are evenly split in their choice for Congress. Asked which party they would back if the election were today, 37% of Hispanic voters said they would support the Republican congressional candidate and 37% said they would favor the Democrat, with 22% undecided.
Hispanic voters were also evenly divided when asked about a hypothetical rematch in 2024 of the last presidential contenders, with 44% saying they would back President Biden and 43% supporting former President Donald Trump. In 2020, Mr. Biden won 63% support among Hispanic voters, nearly 30 points more than Mr. Trump, according to AP VoteCast, a large survey of the presidential electorate

Generations of conservatives seeing content of character and not color of skin have created a whole new constituency of Latino conservatives to join those who sought to escape leftist tyranny elsewhere to become true, patriot Americans.
Hispanic CITIZENS have always been in favor of border security and immigration enforcement.
Bush League Republicans have been lying to us for decades that we had to pander with amnesty to get their votes.
News to Democrats. They didn’t leave socialist crapholes to move to a new socialist crap hole. A lot of the Hispanics I know are some hard working SOB’s
This is a direct consequence of the rats pushing the elite white wokester garbage and the condescending “Latinx” trash. Hispanics tend to despise the champagne liberalism of the wealthy white woke McMansion living class that form the base of the Democrap party.
If that pendulum swings a little more, we can finally get Demonrats on board with closing the border.
That is exactly as I predicted would happen. All these “demographics is destiny” whiners, always assume that things are static.
As an example, I am old enough to remember when it was conventional wisdom that a Republican would never win any statewide office in the Southeast! It took until the 1990’s and 2000’s to get the first Republican Governor in many states in the Southeast - now they routinely win.
Hispanics are much more into family and social networks than the mentally ill, self-loathing, collectivist white women that currently infect our country. Hispanics don’t want what these cat ladies are selling.
I could have told people this in the 1980s/1990s with my military years and meeting various Latinos. I would say that 80-percent of Latino service members are fairly conservative and lean to the right.
Pretty soon Democrats will be on-board with tight border security
A lot of Hispanics self-identify as White and see themselves as part of Western civilization. If they’re going to continue attacking European civilization and Christianity then they’re going to alienate a lot of them.
Yep
I have several upper middle class hispanic neighbors and co-workers who are far more conservative than most “republicans”
The left seems to think the Pinochet and Stroessner types happened in a vacuum and had no support amongst the people.
Well if this population group doesn’t pan out, they’ll figure out a way to abort them or close the borders...
watch for a Hispanic Lives Matter movement in response
If Dims begin to think Hispanics are voting Republican, look for them (Dims) to unleash killer drones along the border.
They will not allow Hispanics to come in and vote R.
when hispanics vote majority republican there will be a border wall with razor wire and guard towers with shoot on sight instructions
Yep. The RAT arm of the UniParty is toast.
However, do not fear, for the GOPe arm will ensure that all will prevail as planned. /s

Correct! And now that the crazy Leftists are burning Christmas trees on live TV (i.e FoxNews HQ in NYC) - that isn’t going to make the mainly Christian Hispanics want to sympathize with those crazies...
More evidence of the shift to the Right by the largest growing demographics!

If that becomes more evident the Left will be pouring money into completing Trump’s wall.
