The survey concluded that any recent gains made by Republicans have suffered based on increased Latino support of the Democrats and disapproval of the Bush administration. One republican Latino politico expressed worry over the results:
A spokesman for the Republican National Committee, Hessy Fernandez, downplayed the study's findings. "Hispanic voters judge candidates based on where they stand on the issues, and the Republican Party is more closely aligned with Hispanics than liberals like Hillary Clinton," he said. The telephone survey, which ran through October and the beginning of November, indicates that most Hispanic voters, 41%, support Senator Clinton among the Democratic candidates. Among the Republican candidates, Mayor Giuliani stands out with 35%...
A former New York congressman who supports a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants, Herman Badillo, said he was not surprised by the poll's results.
"If they keep this up, they're going to lose the Hispanic vote and that will guarantee that a Democratic candidate is going to win," Mr. Badillo, a Republican, said.

Latinos support the Democrats because the Democrats favor keeping the borders open for their illegal aliens. It is pretty simple, support the candidate that will allow mass migration of my homies. More homies, more illegal votes, more votes, and soon this will be a Latino country! Vive Reconquista!
