Florida progressives launch ads aimed at specific Latino groups (Pander 2020)

Latinos are a coveted voting bloc in the battleground state of Florida — but they're not one group when it comes to their countries of origin and the issues on which they focus.

To that end, a progressive political action committee has been releasing a series of ads targeting specific Latino groups as the voting registration deadline approaches.

Forward Florida Action has begun airing Spanish-language radio ads this month across the state encouraging voters to register as Democrats before the Feb. 18 deadline to participate in the presidential primary.

One radio ad targeting Puerto Ricans tells prospective voters that as "our families suffer the impact of hurricanes and earthquakes, this president throws paper towels at our people," referring to President Donald Trump's gesture during his visit following Hurricane Maria.

Another radio ad, aimed at Florida's Mexican American voters, tells them that after they made it in the United States through their labor and worked to become citizens, Trump and his administration don't value them. "They tell us to go back to where we came from because they see our skin color and they hear us speaking Spanish," the ad says. "Demand respect...Be part of the change and let's choose a new president together."

"Trump and his administration don't value them"

I don't value people whose only 'contribution' to America is tell me they're victims and scream racism.

I’m sure the Cubans will appreciate the communist Sander’s message.

I hate the games people play. Except when they lead to failure.

(2016) Univision forecast: Latino vote will sink Trump in Florida

Hillary Clinton will win the key swing state of Florida thanks to the Latino vote, a Univision News election forecast predicts. Without Florida's electoral votes, Trump can't win in November.

Donald Trump will lose the election in Florida - the swing state with the most electoral votes - because most Latinos won't vote for him, Univision News predicts.

As a result, it's virtually impossible for him to win the White House due to the electoral college system, according to a a Univision data analysis of the key five swing states expected to determine the outcome in November.

The forecast, based on a statistical analysis of the presidential race, found that Hillary Clinton will win 48.39% of the vote in Florida, versus 44.87% for Trump.

Beneath all of the talk the liberals have spewed for decades in order to garner votes, their message has always been; “elect me and I will take money from those who have it and I will give it to you!” Even a staunch leftist liberal like Chris Mathews admits; “Socialism doesn’t freeken work!” You may vote it in but guaranteed, you’ll have to shoot your way out of it!

Professional agitators paid for by the likes of BeelzeSoros. We saw them in force during the Vietnam war protests and they tore the country apart.
