Clinton, Obama fight for Hispanic vote
Tagged: Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton
High-profile U.S. endorsements have helped Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama cut into rival Hillary Clinton’s Hispanic support, observers said.
In California — with 441 delegates up for grabs in the Democratic primary Tuesday — Latinos comprise about a quarter of eligible voters, the Christian Science Monitor reported Monday.
“I think in fact (the Latino vote) could determine the outcome in California,” said Gary Segura, a Latino politics expert at the University of Washington. “My sense … is that Clinton’s lead among Latinos has gone down some, particularly because of high-profile endorsements” the Illinois Senator has received.”*
