>Hispanics are enough to tip the balance toward either side. “They’re going to be decisive, but no party should take their support for granted,” warns Clarissa Martínez, vice president of the UnidosUS nonprofit organization, in a clear reference to the Democrats. Latinos with the right to vote — already the largest minority in the country, ahead of African-Americans — now number 36 million. This figure is 12% higher since the 2020 presidential elections. Latinos are the second-fast-growing ethnic group, only surpassed by Asian-Americans, whose voting-age population has grown by 15% over the past four years, with about 15 million eligible to vote. > >Jiromi Peña and Aleida Cura are two of those new voters, as they’ve recently come of age. However, politically, they’re at the opposite ends of the spectrum. Peña’s anti-Trump sentiment was born when she was 10-years-old: all the television networks announced to the world that the Republican had won the presidency. “For me, he’s a scary candidate,” she says. Cura, however, isn’t afraid at all. She feels that there’s a kind of Democratic presumption about all Hispanics that doesn’t respond to reality. “Many don’t express their opinions because they’re scared of cancel culture,” she opines. She’s now fighting alongside the Republican Party to bring new voices out from the shadows to declare themselves as supporters of the business tycoon. This group of voters hasn’t stopped growing since the Trump administration’s conclusion. > >... > >The November election will be defined in six states. This is where the battle for Hispanic support will be especially tough. On the list are Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Together, they represent 77 of the 270 electoral votes necessary to reach the White House. In each of these states, the two parties have set out to conquer a vote that’s neither uniform nor determined. “The biggest fallacy about Latinos is that they act like a monolith,” explains Stella Rouse, director of the Hispanic Research Center at Arizona State University. > >Kristian Ramos — an expert on Latino voting trends at the consulting firm Autonomy Strategies — explains that “maintaining the vote of the Latino community is a challenge. And, if it’s not attended to continuously, if we don’t speak to the community constantly, it can be lost.” After Biden’s last State of the Union address — held in March — his campaign decided to invest $30 million in television, radio and social media ads to win the minority vote. “The party has realized that it needs to invest in Latinos, because support has fallen,” admits Josephine Peña-Melnik. A Dominican by birth, she’s a Democratic delegate in the Maryland House of Delegates.

It will be interesting to see how each of the candidates and parties connects with any particular group of citizens. Given the complex histories and identities and concerns and values that each possesses, it will be difficult to find issues and agendas that would be common to all.
