Nevada’s Latino voters just waiting to be mined

The Hispanic vote is seen as a test of the West, where forces are combining to knock on doors, blast airwaves – even form soccer teams – to shake awake a slumbering political force.

Moved toward the front of the line, the Nevada caucuses Saturday are seen particularly by Democrats as an opportunity to make history and to mold it. It will be the first contest in the nation where the presidential candidates will face a sizable minority population – 24 percent of the state is Hispanic.

If the targeting and the message can work in Nevada, it probably will be transferred to other states, such as Texas, to give punch and impact to the long-dormant Hispanic vote.”*
