Hispanic Americans Point to Crime, Immigration and the Economy as Key Concerns

Recent reports indicate a dramatic political shift for Hispanic Americans, citing a defection from the left toward the right. While some mainstream media accounts dispute the shift, other national surveys are missing the on-the-ground factors that illustrate why a sizeable portion of Latinos are moving right politically, and the fact that many polls suggest Hispanics are drifting from the Democratic party over economic issues.

One Wall Street Journal poll taken earlier this year found that nonwhite voters were more likely to say high inflation is causing major financial strain in their lives with Hispanic men and Black women reporting the highest proportions.

A July Quinnipiac poll also put President Joe Biden’s approval rating among Hispanics at a record low of 19%, largely over the flagging economy.

  3. A certain class of politician thought importing this group by the millions would lead to lots of blue votes, but it turns out Hispanic people aren't as quick to blindly obey as black people are.

    A few years back someone was interviewing this Hispanic dude in Pennsylvania I think, and asked why he supported Trump. His answer was basically "I wasn't allowed to work and support my family under Obama's policies, but now I am."
