AXIOS: Hispanic voters in Southern New Mexico shifting to GOP

March 14, 2022

Axios reports that in Southern New Mexico and across the country top Democrat operatives continue to sound the alarm about “expanding defections by Hispanic voters to the GOP.”

The reasoning? 

  • Democrats are decimating American energy production, but many Hispanic voters work good-paying oil and gas jobs.
  • The number one issue for Hispanic voter is the economy but Democrats have caused skyrocketing inflation.

That spells BAD NEWS for Democrat congressional candidate Gabe Vasquez who lauded President Joe Biden’s decision to kill the Keystone XL pipeline and halt drilling on public lands.
