  1. LATINOS ARE CLUELESS ABOUT POLITICS.

  2. The Latino community knows first hand what socialism/Communist/totalitarian government is all about. The Latino community is very conservative, God, family, country, freedom. During the pandemic the Democrat party showed their true colors.

  3. It’s evil for Latinos to vote for republicans.republicans never vote to give poor people anything they just got to America and is killing our democracy because they our doing good here they vote for republicans all the while republicans hate the poor and blacks but Latinos for got how hard it was to make here but their voting for republicans will end it all and it can hurt everyone lives for generations more drought crimes hurricane and more bad things are coming because of the vote for evil Republicans.

  4. no entiendo porque diablos los latinos votancrepublicano

  5. Thanks for not saying the ridiculous Lantinx !!!! We are LATINOS 🎉

  6. At least democracy & freedom is safe in Florida.

  7. Just here for the tears, honestly 😂😂😂😂

  8. Why? Cause we don't want American to turn in to the countries we left

  9. My humble opinion is that the majority of Hispanics in the state of Florida are of Cuban background, therefore, these Republican voters equate Democracy with Communism. And if Democrats wants to win the state of Florida, they must choose a very strong candidate that is not too far to the left. More like in the middle.

  10. Soon Florida will be under water. That’s funny to me.

  11. I can’t believe anyone can still vote democrat and still complain about inflation and crime. It’s mind numbing.

  12. RON DEATHSENTANCE TURNING FLORIDA INTO 1939 NAZI GERMANY !

  13. What it tells me is they are handing Ron the rope with which they will be hung.

  14. I just don't understand??

  15. YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID

    RED IS DEAD ⛔⛔⛔

    DEATH TO DEMOCRACY
    DEATH TO MEDICARE MEDICADE WOMEN'S RIGHTS SOCIAL SECURITY ETC

    LONG LIVE RACISM AND TAX BREAKS FOR THE RICH

    –RED– 💩🚽

  16. White votes don't count in Florida anymore.

  17. Weird how you can have a party run on a anti Latino, this is America speak English platform and still have Latinos vote for that party. Stockholm syndrome is real.

  18. That Republicans should stop being upset about 'immigrants coming to take over'. They have their own choice, and perhaps they want to misuse that choice to vote for people who will lock them up.

  19. What a great day for all Floridians!!

  20. What about the taco votes ?

  21. I hope he will be better person this time

  22. Just goess to show propagandists dont see colors just opportunities. And BS sounds the same in every language. Should factcheck some Espanol campaign ads sometimes.

  23. Ppl don't mind voting red it's they don't want trump.

  24. Republicans base is white supremacy, unfortunately these people don’t understand that from the state that literally ships off trafficks human beings on the states dime. Republicans forget that we’re all immigrants it’s the United States for a reason

  25. There are too many ignorant Floridian voters! Obviously!

  26. Do they even care about Democracy or even about this country??

  27. Just goes to show how little respect these Republican voters have for their women folk when they can be forced to carry a rapists child to term or one of them whose live is threatened will be refused healthcare just to appease their warped version of reality !

  28. Florida majority who bother to vote at all….

    VOTED for the CRIMINALS!!!!!!!

    Fla is becoming a DICTATORSHIP with LUNATICS & CRIMINALS at the wheel🤪😡

  29. Latinos don't now how to vote. They like Ditators, look theirs countries. Venezuela, Bolivia, salvador ,México. Chile etc.

  30. Their is an s word for the latino vote.

  31. Sorry as a Floridian I can tell you republicans win because of Florida’s Democratic Party. The Democratic Party here in Florida runs only people who will most likely lose, it feels like Florida Dems do this on purpose.

    Republicans didn’t win Florida, Democrats lost it.

    It’s time for something more than 2 corrupt parties.

  32. Uneducated…get educated Latinos.

  33. Nobody cares what Florida has to say!

  34. interesting fact, half the people who protested after the last election never voted, only because they are too stupid to vote, they don't know how to fill out the ballot paper.

  35. Overturning Roe and trying to take away 44 million Americans student loan forgiveness shut down the red wave💯 Is what it is.

  36. Latino in the south is different that the latino in the northeast. Hello….. I'm Puerto Rican from Connecticut. Im Independent. I'm voting for Democrats. Because of the Republican maga and donald trash… The major of Latinos in the USA are Democrats. Tons do not vote. Florida can continue to vote Republican. Wait and watch want happens after a couple of years.

  37. There mad Hispanics arent falling in line

  38. Listening to Trump supporters being interviewed tells us one fact. They are not good with interviews. They make statements they cannot support and they are excessive with platitudes for him. Its always a humorous encounter and the interviewer designs it to show an intellectual deficiency on the part of his guest if he ca., One could get the impression overall his supporters share a level of intellectual parity with Trump. That is probably key to his success with his 'family' of supporters. On their part they believe him and them are same folks. They identify with him, make allowances for him, and bend their integrity to maintain the balance between themselves and him. The circle cannot be broken, to recall a song.

  39. Suddenly immigrants are important to the red States? No more Uvalde? Promis, Abbott?

  40. How bout the Asians vote 🤷🏻‍♂️
