Hispanics in texas as a whole, except for 2024, vote reliably D.

Grok says that from the 1980s to 2023, it could not find an instance of Hispanics voting for a republican governor, president, or US senator.

It might save the country if they vote reliably R, but I wouldn’t count on it.

1) They hate the gay stuff.

2) They tend to have been raised in a religious home.


Neither one of those two points bode well for Freako.

From what I’m hearing, the recent ICE raids terrorizing Latino US citizens in Texas has more Hispanic people motivated to vote.

People making the mistake that Hispanics vote Democrat . . .


Hispanics in TX vacillate between the parties.

They were very blue in 2020 and much more red in 2024.

This has always been one of the major blocs that will determine if Paxton loses.

This is the 2018 Cruz-Beto map



2020:



2022:



This is the 2024 Trump map



They voted for plenty of "gay stuff" while being raised religious in every election except 2024.

The only question is if 2024 was the start of a trend or an outlier.

It's amazing how the news suddenly understands per capita when reporting something like this.

I would wager they are flipping from 2024.

Midterms, ICE affecting Latinos, 2024 being an outlier (for obvious reasons), etc.

Which locales? I’m a Latino that owns a house in Texas. My experience is the opposite of what you claim.

If Talarico wins Texas the Apocalypse isn’t far away. I cannot see any straight man voting for that fruit

They don't like that wierdo stuff for the most part. Like making babies and having a large family with plenty of cousins, uncles,aunts etc. The women are the same. Sure they have a few weirdos, who doesn't.

Legal, or legacy Latinos, are not supporters of illegal immigration. They do not like being lumped in with the unwashed Central American hordes.


100% true. So they broke for Trump in 2024 because of the border security issue.

Now is 2026, it is unclear how they will break. Because instead of getting just border security, they are seeing their friends and neighbors who may not be illegal or who they have known for 20 years getting chased in the streets.

I think it’s a split vote this time.

RGV and South Texas towns. There are many experiences that differ from my experience in Houston and yours, wherever you live.

You'll never admit it, but everything you have said about this race indicates that you want Talarico to win? Why won't you just admit it?

Don't be phonier than a $3 dollar bill your whole life.

I agree. I split time between DFW and the Bay Area in CA. My experience, obviously anecdotal, is Texas Hispanics lean heavily right. In California it’s closer to 50/50.

That southern Texas map showed where Trump destroyed the JOAQUIM CASTRO AND HIS TWIN BROTHER IN SAN ANTONIO MOVEMENT.

What are the odds of Hispanics turning that blue for a gaywadded fruit boy that thinks 11 year olds should gender change?
