Los latinos de California están enojados con Trump. Sus votos a favor de la manipulación de distritos electorales por parte de los demócratas lo demuestran

La Proposición 50, que los demócratas presentaron como un referéndum sobre la administración Trump, atrajo mucho más apoyo de los latinos de California que la campaña presidencial de Kamala Harris el año anterior, según un análisis de datos de CalMatters. Este giro es una señal más de que la frágil coalición de apoyo latino al presidente Donald Trump se está disolviendo.
