Hispanic Media Look to Iowa with Caution
Tagged: agriculture, demographics, Iowa, population
Hispanic media are cautious about placing too much significance on Iowa’s caucus results: Although it is the first state to hold a presidential caucus, Iowa is not representative of the demographics of the country, and does not include the fastest-growing voting bloc of the country: immigrant and Latino voters.
“It is remarkable that Iowa should play such a critical role, given that it isn’t a state that is representative of the demographics nor economy of the United States,” write editors from La Opinión in Los Angeles. Iowa’s population is mostly white; its economy is tied to agriculture and cattle breeding.”*
