Latinos constitute one of the most rapidly expanding voting blocs in American elections. A recent analysis by the Brookings Institution underscores the profound impact of this demographic. Latinos not only possess the highest ratio of first-time voters among any voting bloc in the country, but this growth is largely fueled by voters under the age of 30. According to an analysis by Brookings Institution Senior Fellow Gabriel Sanchez, this surge in Latino could prove decisive in 2024 - particularly when we consider that this growth is concentrated in pivotal battleground states like Arizona and Nevada. Tonight, we’re joined by Gabirel Sanchez, Latino USA anchor Maria Hinojosa, and Jolina Jimenez, Youth Advocate with the non-partisan organization YVote, to dissect and explore the demographics powering this key electorate, and the issues that young Latinas and Latinos say matter to them most.
