“In 2006, as a debate over immigration reform was raging in the US, the country’s Latino voters played a major role in helping the Democratic Party regain control of the US Congress.

And, in recent months, Latinos have also played a pivotal role in helping the Democratic Party candidate Hillary Clinton stay in the race against her rival Barack Obama, contributing to her impressive victory in California on Super Tuesday and playing a major role in her victory a month later in Texas.

In both cases, Latinos voted in much higher numbers than expected in the Democratic primaries, with two-thirds of them voting for Mrs Clinton.”*
