From our Monday morning PDF newsletter:
Latinos Still Waiting For A Vote
For now, Hispanic voters remain sidelined in the earliest caucuses and primaries.
Last week’s results in Iowa were not significantly impacted by the tiny number of Latino voters. The same will be true of this week’s primary in New Hampshire and next week’s primaries in Michigan and South Carolina. Latino votes won’t matter much there, either.
That will begin to change for Latino Democrats on January 19th in Nevada and peaks on February 5th’s 23-state super duper contests, with the possibility of a last hurrah in Texas on March 4th. For Hispanic Republicans, primary season pretty much begins and ends on January 29th in Florida.
