In Reply to: About that Texas redistricting ... posted by mh on July 31, 2025 at 09:22:20
I would be dumb for them to redistrict based on Hispanic support, counting on similar Hispanic support.
The only republican that got near 50% support from Hispanics is Trump only on his second election. Prior, 60% was considered a big win (W Bush) where as Dems are usually shooting for 65%. Obama was about 66%.
Biden beat Trump 62% to 29% for Hispanics.
The economist had Trump's approval with Hispanics at 41% two weeks ago, but he usually polls around 30% currently. The economist looks to be the outlier.
