Near the Rio Grande Valley, in Hispanic-majority districts, the issue of rising prices is the number one concern for many voters.
In Texas and across the country, the Latino vote might be decisive in determining some races for Congress and state offices.
A new tracking poll by the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials Educational Fund finds that inflation and the rising cost of living is the top issue among Latino votersNear the Rio Grande, in Hispanic-majority districts, the issue of rising prices is the number one concern of many voters.
When the NALEO Education Fund conducted their polls in 2020, they heard from voters who had their work hours cut or had to dip into their savings or retirement to pay for expenses. Three U.S. House races along the Texas-Mexico border could determine the balance of power in Congress. Democrats and Republicans have taken different approaches to attracting Latino voters.
Velez says there are really different "dueling narratives that are occurring" in a race to win over the Latino voter. In addition, the poll found that most Latino voters in the state continue to support Democrats overall, leaving some analysts to caution against solely focusing on one issue.
