MULTIPLE exit polls showed that Trump won 29% of the Hispanic vote. La Raza executive may wish this is not true... but it is.
apparently even la raza doesn't realize understand the Catholic lash. Obamacare and Federal govt morons tried to get the church to provide abortifacients. It was an incredibly arrogant power bunch of people flexing their Federal Govt muscle. The Catholic Church flexed their muscles back and got some of the vote away from democrats by focusing on the the taking of an innocent human lives many of them hispanic and black. I can't tell you how cool I think that was. Had Obama left the Church alone... I suspect they would have left democrats alone.
Even at 29 % its less than the majority,less than most,less than bush got and 2 % more than Romney got .Democrats have a lot of problems but Hispanics and African Americans voting GOP is at the bottom of the list.
The trend of more Latinos and Blacks voting Republican rather than Democratic is solidly in the middle of the list. This is supposed to be a core Democratic constituency whose vote can be counted on.
The further left your party goes, the more you risk turning away those core constituencies. The media would have us believe that all Hispanic's favor blanket amnesty and that every African American is a BLM supporter...Sorry, but that couldn't be further from the truth (perhaps you don't even know that). Taking radical positions on core issues does not bring in more people to your party.
44 % of Hispanics voted for Bush and 29 and 27 % voted for Trump and Romney.Trump and Romney got 6 and 8 % of the black vote IIRC.McCain,Romney and Trump got a smaller % of Black and Hispanic votes than Bush.I don't see that as a trend of more Latinos and Blacks voting Republican.
In this election 12 to 14% of the black voters cast a ballot for Trump according to exit polls. The increase to 29% of Latinos is also obviously higher than recent elections. This should be a disturbing trend for the Democratic party in context of their perspective of how "racist" Trump is.
Trump got a 2 % increase of the black and Hispanic vote from Romney and a smaller % than Bush in both groups.Not a disturbing trend at all imo.
8 % http://www.cbsnews.com/news/cbs-news-exit-polls-how-donald-trump-won-the-us-presidency/ "Clinton needed extremely strong support from African-American voters to try to offset Trump’s margin among whites. She did win 88 percent of the black vote to just 8 percent for Trump." http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/20...blacks-hispanics-romney-12-exit-polls-n681386 "Trump claimed 29 percent of the Hispanic vote on Tuesday compared to Romney's 27 percent in 2012. With blacks, exit polls show Trump claimed 8 percent of the vote to the previous Republican nominee's 6 percent."
