2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumInteresting stats on Hispanic polling in Florida
The poll was from August 3rd but I don't see that there has been any kind of big shift in Hispanic voters since then.
Trump at 13% among FL Latinos! Had Romney gotten thathe'd have lost FL by 9% instead of 1%
Bush '04? -10%, not +3%
Not only that, Hispanics are coming out in record numbers.

There are a dozen more articles like these.

At this point in 2008, 260,263 Latino voters, or 9.6% of the electorate, voted early. So far in 2016, that number has grown to 596,146, or 14.1% of all early ballots cast. terms of raw numbers, Hispanic early turnout has increased 129% from 2008. Their turnout numbers increased at a faster rate than white and black voters.

This would double the advantage plus with the high turnout it seems like a perfect storm. Trump is relying on whites coming out in much bigger numbers.
