Axios poll: Latinos’ slow drift from Dems
June 22, 2023
Axios is delivering tough news for vulnerable Democrats in districts with big Hispanic populations, like Darren Soto, whose district is 50% Hispanic and won by 7.3% in 2022.
Upon reading more, this shift away from Democrats is bad news for Soto.
- “The more pieces are in play, the harder it’s going to be for any Democratic candidate to thread the needle.”
- “When you’re talking about elections that are won by a percentage point, small losses can make a difference.”
“For years, Darren Soto and the Democrat Party have taken Hispanic voters for granted by ignoring the issues that are most important to them. Under Biden’s failing economy, it’s clear Florida Hispanics are realizing Soto isn’t the guy for them.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Delanie Bomar
