Clinton Beats Trump Among Latinos 76 Percent to 14 Percent

by Carrie Dann

Donald Trump remains overwhelmingly unpopular with Latinos, a new NBC News/ Wall Street Journal/Telemundo poll shows, with only about one in seven Latino voters say they support the presumptive GOP nominee.

A whopping 76 percent of the 300 Latino registered voters in the poll said they back Hillary Clinton in a head-to-head race, while just 14 percent said they back Trump.

What's more, 82 percent of Latino voters say they have an unfavorable view of Trump, while just 11 percent view him positively.

A majority — 63 percent — of Latinos describe themselves as "pessimistic and worried" about Trump's ability to serve as president, while an additional 20 percent say they are "uncertain and wondering" about his capacity to do the job.

Clinton's favorability rating with Latinos is 64 percent positive, 25 percent negative.

1. Amazing. We're just ver a decade removed from Bush getting 45% of the

Latino vote nationwide.

[forest444]

3. I remember at the time seeing the figure most often cited at 41%.

It sounds like Rove's revisionist handmaidens have been busy tweaking the number (with our trusty corporate media only too happy to echo it).

Nevertheless, 41% was quite a milestone for a Rapepublican candidate.

10. Helped Bush win , so without this vote block trump has it harder which is a good thing

Gonna guess Cubans and super fundies make up the pro trump

[forest444]

17. Sure - but you know what REALLY pushed Shrub over the top:

Electronic vote tabulation rigging in Ohio, courtesy of Ken "black box" Blackwell.

Those who were really in on it, of course, aren't talking - yet. http://www.rawstory.com/news/2008/Killed_GOP_pilot_suspected_plane_had_1222.html

19. ^good read. They will try everything_ it's the only way they can win

[Iliyah]

2. OK, I'm puzzled. Why didn't NBC have the number in their initial polling?

Anywho, good to hear. Now vote!

[RKP5637]

4. I can't imagine anyone being Black, Latino, Muslim, LGBT and even many women

and others voting for an authoritarian disgusting POS like Trump/Pence.

[Warpy]

9. Some people are just plain contrary

and others believe firmly in a top-down style of society in which every disadvantaged person knows his or her place and it's all follow the leader so no one ever has to make any difficult choices.

[RKP5637]

11. Sad, but quite true. I guess they love an authoritarian totalitarian place to live. n/t

[Warpy]

12. That's the worst part, they'd hate that nearly as much as we would

especially if they or people they view as surrogates weren't in charge.

Witness the rhetoric against the "dictator" Obama.

[RKP5637]

14. Quite true, but if it were their brand of haters, they would likely love it. n/t

[GOLGO 13]

25. Money Hispanics know which side butters their bread.

They are just like the Log Cabin Republicans. They will sell out their own kind for the $$$. Evangelicals will fall in line, so that's about 10% alone right there.

[treestar]

5. GOTV!

[riversedge]

24. I hope those who can canvass or phone bank will do so as often as they are able.

[groundloop]

6. GOPers obviously have lot of votes they need to suppress

If they weren't so good at suppressing votes by purging voter rolls, demanding photo ID, reducing early voting, cutting back on polling stations in minority areas they wouldn't stand a chance.

[TomCADem]

7. But Will They Actually Vote?

The one thing about Trump's race based campaign is that is really super charges the racists to get out to vote.

[RKP5637]

13. Anger and hatred are a great motivators, and Trump is playing all the cards. Some of it

is very reminiscent of Hitler's techniques.

[left-of-center2012]

8. That can't be correct

I heard Trump say last week that he's winning the Hispanic, African-American, and women's vote.

[RKP5637]

15. In his dreams ... n/t

[IronLionZion]

16. And more Latinos have registered to vote this year, against Trump

Trump is energizing Latinos and many other groups to vote against his hateful rhetoric.

Obama inspired a lot of new first time voters to register and got a high turnout, and many of them will vote against Trump this year too.

[Hawaii Hiker]

18. I figure if Romney got 27% of the Latino vote & McCain got 31%

I would be AMAZED if Trump even gets to 20%...

Furthermore, with roughly 20% of the Latino vote, that would make it next to impossible for him to win Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Florida..

[phylny]

20. ¡Gracias a las personas hispanas! (Sin texto) n/t

[Crowman1979]

21. Well....

...

[liberal N proud]

22. 17% - I can't for the life of me figure out why that many would support Trump.

[Tarheel_Dem]

23. I heard a Latina Trump booster on NPR completely dismiss this poll due to sample size. She was....

pushing a Pew Poll with 5 times the sample size of this one that purports that Trump's support among Latinos is at 33%.
