Description

Why did two angry Mexicans start a podcast? To ‘taco’ bout the Latino Vote. – Because Juan angry Mexican is simply not enough.Or maybe they are angry because the joke was that bad.In this episode of the Latino Vote Podcast, Chuck and Mike venture into the heartland of America, shining a spotlight on lesser-known races with surprisingly high concentrations of Latino voters. They analyze Nikki Haley’s surprising support in the Indiana’s Republican primary, as she received 1 out of 5 republican votes, despite dropping out of the race some time ago. The results highlight the broader discontent within the Republican base and its implications for the upcoming elections.Our hosts then continue to provide an outlook of the emerging Latino presence across the country, including Nebraska, where candidates like Senator Tony Vargas, son of Peruvian immigrants, aims to be the first Latino elected to Congress from that state.The conversation takes a serious turn as our hosts address the concerning trend of violence and threats in politics, with Chuck reflecting on recent incidents with the Ebony Payne campaign, ultimately resulting in law enforcement stepping in. They touch upon the impact of past events like January 6th and emphasize the importance of maintaining civility in public discourse.From discussions on border security to reflections on identity and representation, Chuck and Mike urge both parties to listen, learn, and adapt to the changing Latino electorate. Their candid conversations offer critical analysis, personal anecdotes, and a call to action for consultants and politicians to engage authentically and inclusively.Recorded on May 8, 2024.Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe for more episodes of The Latino Vote Podcast!Watch our episodes on YouTube: www.youtube.com/@thelatinovotepodcastFollow us on X (formerly Twitter): https://twitter.com/TheLatino_VoteVisit our website for the latest Latino Vote news and subscribe to our newsletter: latinos.voteIf you want more of our discussions and behind the scenes please join our Patreon (www.patreon.com/thelatinovote) for exclusive content and opportunities!
