Trump’s Unexpected Allies: Are Black and Hispanic Voters Really Ditching Democrats?
Rob Bluey /
Recent polling suggests that some traditionally Democrat-leaning voters, particularly black and Hispanic men, appear to be reconsidering their political allegiances.
Their concerns about the high cost of living and rising crime have them trending toward former President Donald Trump, which could make them the deciding factor in the 2024 presidential election.
Gabriel Nadales, national director of Our America, spoke with The Daily Signal about these surprising developments—and shared first-hand accounts of why voters are switching sides. Watch our full interview in the video above.
“It’s kind of insane that there are so many Hispanic Americans out there who are very much voting for Trump,” Nadales said. “They see that, unfortunately, the Democrat Party no longer represents them.”
Nadales’ organization, Our America, is active in the key battleground states of Arizona and Georgia, attempting to unite Americans at a time when it seems we’re hopelessly divided.
Our America has organized local events with the goal of inspiring Americans to be active citizens in their local communities.
“If you want to affect policy at the national level,” Nadales explained, “you have to get people engaged at the local level with things that they actually can directly affect to show them that they can make a difference in long term.”
The group’s core issues are promoting safer communities, lowering the cost of living, defending freedom of speech, and ensuring fair elections.
