From The Kansas City Star:
Louis DeSipio, a political science professor specializing in Latino studies at the
University of California, Irvine, said both parties know the stakes. “For Democrats
to win, they have to run nontraditional campaigns to win younger minority voters,”
he said. “And Republicans know they need to never let Latinos get to the African-American,
90-10 split. If they do that, they’re goners as a party.”
