Latino voters react to the presidential race

Vice President Kamala Harris is favored by Latinos in Spanish-speaking and bilingual households at a higher rate than in English-speaking ones, according to a new BSP Research and UnidosUS poll of Latino eligible voters. The poll of 3,000 Latinos surveyed Aug. 3-23 shows 59% said they would vote for Harris if the election were held today, compared to 32% for Trump.

The amount of people that don't actually understand 'the economy' and just regurgitate factually incorrect talking points 🤦🏻

[Tiquntum]

First Guy still votes for Trump because of the economy... And that's the problem of how misinformed some voters are. 🤷🏽‍♀️

[macspectral]

This is why it's comical when someone says "Latinos for Trump" or "blacks for Trump, " like that person speaks for the majority of them. Not even close.

[elmertorres]

No way in the world would I vote for Trump. Doesn't matter who runs against him.

[simplylovie]

That young guy clearly didn't realize how bad Trump economy was, and he watched a million people die of COVID.

1st guy is factually incorrect. Trump is far worse for the economy and I believe that Goldman Sachs literally came out today and basically endorsed harris by saying that Trump would be far worse for the economy. Goldman Sachs said that if you want a good economy then you need to vote for kamala. It wasn't me saying that. It wasn't kamala saying that. It wasn't joe biden saying that. It wasn't CNN saying that; it was one of the biggest financial services firms in the world saying that.

The harris campaign needs to get that in a political ad in every swing state tomorrow and play literally every commercial break from now until election.

Country over party. If Trump was a democrat and Harris was republican, I would be voting republican. Trump shouldn’t be allowed to hold any position in government

[myBquest]

I have this uncle, he got to the USA as an immigrant with his wife, received a lot of help from kind people in the country, converted into a mormon, had kids, got his legal papers, got a job and then retired. The american dream you know?

He voted for Trump in 2016, 2020, and he will again in 2024. In his words, Trump believes in everything that will make the society better. Of course, that's linked with his religion, you know which things from Trump's speech align with that.

But what surprises me the most ever since, is how he says he doesn't want more immigrants arriving to "HIS" country, he wants the country to be "protected" and for people to get into the country legally. I'm sorry, but that whole statement coming from someone who arrived an illegal immigrant is BOLD. I don't know what to think.

I'm amazed at how many people comment on the economy without knowing anything about it!

[kerrywilliams]

Some of these young black and Hispanic men are so misinformed. Very sad to see and hear them supporting Trump who could care less about them.

[magicworld]

I'm a Republican and all my friends are Republicans. We're all voting for VP Harris. All of us are going "BLUE" this time around.

[small_golem]

I’m so sick of people not knowing the difference between the economy being bad and themselves making bad financial decisions or having bad luck.

[wwilliambrayboy]

HARRIS AND WALTZ NOVEMBER 4, 2024 WE ARE NOT GOING BACK!!

[izzecee]

That first guy is delusional! Has no idea how bad Donny was and how he disparaged every Latino in this country. He eff’d up the Covid response and clearly has no clue of what he was doing! Total disgrace on every level.

[JonHenri]

That first guy is kept under a rock...

[thomasmoxstemannmontoya]

OH MY GOD, I'VE HAD IT UP TO HERE WITH PPL TALKING ABOUT HOW BAD THE ECONOMY IS WHEN THE ECONOMY IS DOING GREAT!

[rwilliams]

This first dude is completely Clueless. 🤬

[KDSmiley]

Does the 1st guy not realize that 45 inherited President Obama's good economy. Also did he forget how 45 handled COVID. Sad😢

[cesarsalinas]

I’ve never been better financially, idk what all these people keep saying that the economy is bad. It’s YOUR responsibility to overcome any financial struggle you have not the government.

[lynsthoughts]

I cannot fathom why any Latino would vote for Trump
When he tells you he doesn't like you
The Cuban vote is Florida is NOT blue totally cannot understand
