Opinion: Biden is bleeding support from Hispanic voters. Democrats should be petrified.
Washington Post ^ | Oct 13, 2021

President Biden’s cratering poll numbers with independent voters have received a lot of attention. Less noticed — but just as important — are his plummeting numbers among Hispanic voters.

Biden won Hispanics handily in 2020. While it’s true that this demographic moved in former president Donald Trump’s direction compared with 2016, Biden still trounced Trump by a 65-32 margin among Hispanics according to the exit poll. Those good feelings carried over into the early months of Biden’s presidency. In late May, Biden’s job approval among Hispanics averaged 60 percent, with a net approval margin of 32, a bit larger than his vote margin the prior year.

Hispanics have since abandoned Biden in droves. His job approval among Hispanics in three polls taken in early October has declined to a mere 43 percent . Moreover, 46 percent of Hispanics now disapprove of his performance. That swing against Biden is even larger than the swing among independents.

Data for Hispanics are difficult to come by for the Clinton and Obama administrations, but there seems to be no evidence that Hispanics have ever given either presidencies a net negative job approval rating. Indeed, Barack Obama’s job approval with Hispanics averaged higher than 60 percent throughout his first term, and Hispanics voted 60-38 for Democrats in the 2010 GOP wave that netted them 63 House seats…

It’s not too hard to figure out why Hispanics might have turned on the president. Only 21 percent of Hispanics approve Biden’s handling of immigration, according to the most recent Economist/YouGov poll...

But they’ve got the fraud down to an art, and will use it relentlessly.

If they can manipulate machines and allow copies of ballots come into polling places at midnights, they don’t need anyone.. not even Hispanics.

Good news and no surprise. Most Hispanics are hard workers, family oriented, entrepreneurial and much more likely to vote than the loser types.

Democrats should be petrified.

Why? They are executing the game plan with the outcome that should have been expected. Or did they think they could give power to the left only for the election and then take it back once the left was in power?

Yes but they wont be because their ability to see reality is clouded by by years of being tone deaf.

They lost Hispanic support to Trump in 2020, but it didn’t matter.

"Democrats should be petrified."

Just like they were at 1 AM of Nov 4, 2020 when biden was being wiped out in Pennsylvania...
It only took them 4 hours to get over it and be happy again...

Well according to a lot of people around these parts voting doesn’t matter anyway. They are boycotting voting because Trump told them to

Democrats aren’t worried because they don’t need people to support them anymore when they have the overwhelming support of the voting machines.

Me too. I anticipate an election bloodbath for the Democrats in the mid-terms. As gas, food, and housing … essentially everything rises in price, and shortages abound, Democrats will be forced to defend the indefensible.

They are going to be on the defensive with no way out, surrounded and trapped in the doomed "Biden Salient". Slagging President Trump will be a "no win" for them. It would only server to remind voters of the good times that they enjoyed under President Trump.

Bill Clinton was right about one thing: “It's the economy, stupid.”

The problem is Trump won in 2020 but the election was stolen. Republican leadership has dome nothing to fix the Steal.
