Let's talk about voting hombres

     The Latino vote is substantial and should be respected. There are nearly 27.3 million Latino voters in America which is about 4 million more than 2012. In the CNN article, there are two types of Hispanic voters: The ideologues and the group benefit voters. The ideologue is a Trump supporter and the group benefit voter is for the rolling Hills. The ideologue supports Trump because they believe in hard work being the integral factor for success in America. The group benefits voter received papers to live in America two years prior and has worked hard but still feels that more can be done to protect Latino families. 

      To reach out to the nearly 30 mil Latino voters, Hillary is going door to door and Trump is calling Latino community leaders. Both have proven effective thus far. 
      Pollster Whit Ayers has predicted that Trump would need 40% of the Latino community backing him in order to be a competitor. In 2004, Bush got 44% and won reelection but in 2012, Romney got 27% and did not win election. There's obviously something to this magic percentage.
      The reason an Ideologue is going to possibly vote Trump is because they feel less affected by his rhetoric. The group voters are going to feel very involved with his rhetoric and not see him as an advocate for their community in any way shape or form.
