Super Tuesday, Latino watershed
Tagged: Barack Obama, citizenship, Hillary Clinton, voter registration
A surge in new citizenship and voter registration among Latinos combined with the highly competitive primaries on Super Tuesday to make this presidential election season a turning point in national Latino political influence. And Tuesday’s election results confirm that New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton has built convincing momentum by attracting those voters in the race for the Democratic nomination.
“The candidates and the campaigns feel they have to compete more for this group, and they are competing more than ever before: (Illinois Sen. Barack) Obama with the message of his positions, and Hillary through her relationships,” said David Ayón, a senior research associate at the Center for the Study of Los Angeles at Loyola Marymount University.”*
