Are Latino Pollsters Helping or Hurting the Democratic Cause?
Description
As Democrats confront declining Latino support across three consecutive presidential elections, a fierce debate is unfolding within the party: Are Latino advocacy groups and polling firms helping or hurting the Democratic cause? Critics argue that a flawed messaging strategy —and a complacent advocacy infrastructure— have led to Latino voters drifting right, even toward Donald Trump. But advocates push back, warning that the narrative of a dramatic rightward shift is exaggerated and politically dangerous. In the final episode of our series collaboration with LAist podcast Imperfect Paradise, we take you inside the high-stakes debate over the future of Latino political power in America.
