Among nationally registered Latino voters, Biden leads President Donald Trump from 62 percent to 26 percent, but his predecessor, Hillary Clinton, benefited from this turnout at the same stage in 2016, according to a new NBC News / Street Street Journal / Telemundo poll The report, released on Sunday, said. .
Biden is seen by voters as better at addressing the Latino community’s concerns from 1 percent to 1 percent, and 1 percent of candidates say Biden and 1 percent prefer Trump.
Biden’s 36-point lead against Trump in the presidential race shows that Democrats still have strong support in the community, which could help Biden tighten his grip on the presidency in some states.
Ellen Cardona-Arroyo, a senior Heart Research analyst who conducted the poll, said: “Biden’s Latino support exceeds his influence with all voters, with 1 percent saying they would vote for Trump.
But it is clear that Biden has something to do with Hispanic voters. In a September 2016 NBC News / Wall Street Journal / Telemondo poll, Clinton led Trump with 63 percent to 16 percent of registered Hispanic voters.
The 32 million people in this election are the largest non-white group of Latinos eligible voters. However, the National Association of Elected and Appointed Officials estimates that about 14.6 million people will vote in this year’s election amid the coronavirus epidemic.
Biden’s biggest support with Hispanic registered voters is between 18 and 39 years old – 71 percent of that group support him.
According to the Census Bureau, Latino, aged 18 to 35, has about 40 percent of eligible voters in the demographic segment. Young Latino voters generally have lower turnout than other young voters, although Latino voters increased their turnout in mid-2018 to 18-29 years.
“If you’re a Biden campaigner, you’re looking at this in terms of the opportunity to vote because we know the low turnout is small, so there’s an opportunity to expand the electorate, but there’s a need to invest a little bit,” Arroyo said.
However, younger voters are more likely to vote for the Democrats, “they are also a group that will have to make big investments in terms of turning to vote for them,” he said.
Cardona-Arroyo said Trump is a little annoyed with the younger Latino men, as he is with the younger men in the electorate. Thirty-one percent of Latino men support Trump over Biden, compared to just 22 percent of Ladinas.
The polls showed more interest among registered Latino voters in the November 3 election, but not as high as the overall registered voters.
Seventy percent of respondents ranked their interest on a scale of 9 to 10 on a scale of 1 to 10, which is lower than all registered voters (percent0 percent) but higher than September, 201 in (while Latin 0 percent Latino chose 9 or Were made.10).
“We have to think about whether the interest in the election will turn into people,” said Cardona-Arroyo. “Something has to be thought about both campaigns.”
The results are based on an over-sample of 300 registered Hispanic voters in the September 13-16 NBC News / Wall Street Journal poll, of which 70 percent chose to be interviewed in English and 30 percent chose Spanish, and covered the distance. Plus or minus 5.66 percentage point error.
