I'd think that latino voters in particular would be offended most by trump, but according to exit polls, a whopping 31% of latino voters went to trump in Florida: http://www.cnn.com/2016/11/08/politics/first-exit-polls-2016/ http://www.cnn.com/2016/11/08/politics/first-exit-polls-2016...
- hellofunk 10y agoMost latinos in Florida are not of Mexican descent, and Trump's comments were most hurtful for Mexicans, so that might partly explain it.
- 0xcde4c3db 10y agoFlorida's Latino population is unusual (relative to the rest of the country) because of all the people who settled there after fleeing Cuba. It's typical for them to vote and identify heavily Republican based on issues around US-Cuba relations (Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz are both of Cuban ancestry, for example).
