Latino group launches effort to defeat Donald Trump in 2020
MSN News ^ | 1/13/2020

Posted on 01/13/2020 1:53:07 AM PST by Altura Ct.

In a bid to capture one of the most quickly growing segments of American voters, American Latinos United has launched a new political action committee focused on defeating President Donald Trump in the upcoming 2020 presidential election.

Led by former Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and entrepreneur Fernando Espuelas, the committee will specialize in Latino voter engagement in key swing states in hopes of propelling the Democratic nominee, whoever that turns out to be, to victory.

"President Trump captured about 30% of the Hispanic vote in 2016. If he falls under that threshold in 2020, key battleground states will be out of his reach," Espuelas said in a statement. "With the Electoral College in play, we intend to empower Latinos in battleground states to defeat Trump with their votes."

The committee said it is looking to take advantage of its veteran politicians and technological innovation in order to craft messaging directed at Latinos as well as engaging in on-the-ground activation. Using traditional media and digital media platforms, their team will engage voters in Arizona, Florida, North Carolina, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

Also, ALU will attempt to connect with single-issue voters that have not historically voted for Democratic candidates in hopes of "educating them about the moral danger that Trump represents."

...About 40.4% of eligible Latino voters came out to the polls during the 2018 midterm elections -- about 11.7 million voters in total, according to the Pew Research Center. A record 32 million Latinos are expected to be eligible to vote in 2020, making them the nation's largest minority for the first time.

Illegal Anti-Americans against Trump PAC? They will have their first meeting in a secret location, so ICE can’t report those Socialist Anti-American Globalists.

Latino is a Spanish word.

It means someone belonging to the people of ancient Latium, in Italy, whose language was Latin

The Romans were Latino.

These 10s of millions of a@@holes?

Not so much.

Ignorant morons.

This is an identity politics group. Thank God a large number of legal Latino Americans see themselves as people rather than as needy wards of the state who can be defined by their ancestry and by the far-left’s stereotypes.

This effort is all about amnesty for illegals and keeping the borders open on and on. Increase their political clout by increasing their numbers.

Watchdog to counties: Clean up voter registrations or get sued
World Net Daily ^ | January 2, 2019 | WND Staff / FR Posted by fwdude

Government watchdog Judicial Watch is warning 19 large counties in five states that they will be sued unless they clean up their voting registration lists. A total of at least 2.5 million ineligible voters are registered in those counties, Judicial Watch said Thursday in demand letters to county officials.

The organization is pressing states and counties to follow the National Voter Registration Act of 1993, which "requires jurisdictions to take reasonable efforts to remove ineligible registrations from its rolls." "Dirty voting rolls can mean dirty elections and Judicial Watch will insist, in court if necessary, that states follow federal law to clean up their voting rolls," said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. (Excerpt) Read more at wnd.com …

Judicial Watch sent the warnings to officials in Colorado’s Jefferson County and California’s Imperial, Monterey, Orange, Riverside, San Diego, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Solano, Stanislaus and Yolo counties.

Letters also went to North Carolina’s Guilford and Mecklenburg counties, Virginia’s Fairfax County, and Pennsylvania’s Allegheny, Bucks, Chester and Delaware counties.”

wonder how much people PAY to get their stories in the news. That is how it is done in Mexico. Anyway, THIS is a non news story. Hispanics are flooding to Donald Trump. Sorry, the jinx is up and we caught you.

Democrap plans to gain total power are collapsing.
The cockamamie idea for Nanzi’s ill-fated impeachment was:
<><> to muddy-up Trump for an ignominious 2020 defeat
<><> to engineer Trump’s defeat w/ a down-ticket Dem win,
<><> to have Dems sail in as heroes, in total control of the govt.

That aint happening, people. Trump brilliantly got the census stats to include “citizenship.” Parscale’s crunching the numbers as we type.

Democrats have a very, Very big problem. CANT declare victory using voter fraud.......b/c the numbers wont add up.

REFERENCE

Since June 13 of 2019, the Census Bureau has been conducting an experiment to gauge public reaction to a citizenship question on the census.

Around 480,000 U.S. households were randomly selected to complete test forms — half of which include the question, “Is this person a citizen of the United States?”

Plans for the test were first disclosed publicly in November 2019 as part of last-minute preparations for the Trump administration’s late request for the question.

The census bureau had intended to proceed with the test regardless of how the courts ruled.
Researchers says the responses, which will be collected through Aug. 15, can help inform any officials who may want to add the question to future census forms.

The C/B also collects citizenship data via its American Community Survey.

Trump kicked-off his 2020 campaign with a rip-roaring rally in Toledo, Ohio (many from nearby states also attended).
Thousands were inside........tens of thousands stood outside in freezing cold viewing Trump's speech on the jumbotron.

The line to get in to see Trump was so long, it was next to impossible to find the end of it.

Ace number-cruncher Brad Parscale's winning data from Toledo:
✅ 22,927 Voters Identified
✅ 18,210 Voters From Ohio
✅ 5,216 Registrants Didn't Vote in 2016
✅ 21.9% Democrats
✅ 20.9% Independents

===========================================

NOTE: At he same time, 45 showed up to hear billionaire Bloomberg and Judge Judy,
and 11 people attended a Biden rally to hear John Kerry speak.)

I suspect voter ID is another thing this PAC fights against.
