So what percentage of the Hispanic population will vote for Trump?
There isn't a straight forward answer here. It's very nuanced....
In 2016 Trump got 28% of the Hispanic vote. My bet for this year is up to 40% and likely at least 35%. Here is where the nuance begins. Hispanic males weigh over weight the numbers. And just like whites, Hispanics come from varied and different backgrounds.
Which brings us to Florida. A large portion of the Hispanic population is from Cuba and Venezuela. They can't stand communists and socialists for obvious reasons. So their Pro-Trump support is much higher than the "Hispanic percentage. " They will win FL for Trump.
Texas Hispanic vote is predominantly Mexican of course, with other origins mixed in. They are gonna vote closer to average but I'm going to be curious to see if it's as strong dem as is traditional, or not. Unlike the black vote Hispanics are much more likely to look at what they truly believe is best for them, as opposed to a block vote for dems no matter how poorly they are treated.
