Hispanics Rising: An overview of the emerging politics of America’s Hispanic population

October 13th, 2007 · No Comments

Here's a press release about their new report Hispanics Rising: An overview of the emerging politics of America's Hispanic population from NDN.org. They write:

For 5 years the NDN community has been telling a simple but important story - that the very rapid growth of the Hispanic community was creating a very new and powerful dynamic in the American electorate.

In our new report, Hispanics Rising, NDN reviews the emerging politics of the fastest-growing part of the American electorate, one deeply changed by the immigration debate. The report documents how Hispanics have gone from a group trending Republican to a group overwhelmingly Democratic; one whose percentage of the American electorate has increased by 33 percent in the last 4 years; and one poised, because of the structure of the Electoral College, to determine who the next President will be in 2008.
