> Hispanics Sour On The Racist Sleepy Joe Biden and Democrats' Agenda As Midterms Loom

President Biden comfortably won the Hispanic vote in 2020 by 59 percent, according to the Pew Research Center. Yet a Quinnipiac Poll this month showed Biden’s job approval rating among Hispanics plummeted to just 28 percent. So, what happened? It’s important to know because defection of a once reliable voting bloc could signal disaster for the Democratic Party in this year’s midterm elections and, possibly, loss of majority control in the House and Senate. From my perspective as an immigrant from Nicaragua, combined with analysis of reliable polls, what happened seems clear. First, Hispanic voters care about the same things as most everyone else, despite contrary narratives on TV. The economy and health care consistently rank at the top of their concerns, especially given COVID-19.

A September 2020 Pew Research poll on top election issues among Hispanics ranked immigration eighth in importance.
