Latino Vote


As anticipated, the Latino vote was very significant in this years Presidential Election. More than two thirds of the Latino demographic voted for President Obama maintain his position for another for years According to CNN " Latinos not only helped Obama win in key battleground states, but they made up 10% of the electorate for the first time ever." Latinos, the fastest growing minority who make up 16% of this country's population had a great say Nov. 6th. President Obama receiving 71% of the Latino vote as opposed to a much lower 27% by Gov. Romney. Now, we have to keep in mind what Gov. Romney said during the Second Presidential Debate in which his opinion about "self-deportation" stood firmly in front of Latino woman who asked a question related to Immigration Laws. Makes me wonder had he had a more appealing answer for Hispanic/Latinos if we would be looking at a different President today.

  1. This entry reiterates and expands on the previous one and, still, no visual analysis. I think you would have done a much better if you did not try to write all the entries on the same day. After all, they were supposed to be done on a weekly basis.
