Hispanics wield voting power on Super Tuesday


A large article in today's New York Times about the Hispanic voting bloc. Although it's not entirely new that Hispanics will play an unprecedented part in this year's election, it is noteworthy that today's 24 states make up about 60 percent of eligible Hispanic voters. Especially in the tight races with Barack Obama and HIllary Clinton, if they vote, they will have an impact.

Here are several other articles about Hispanics' influence on Super Tuesday from New American Media, The Wall Street Journal and The Denver Post.

In related articles, here's one about the 2008 candidates and where they stand on free trade with Latin America
