Crosstabs from the California recall vote include some potentially troublesome news for Democrats:
Now, it’s entirely possible that Newsome’s patrician behavior during a lockdown that disproportionally affected Latinos is partly, even largely, the cause.
But we know a couple of things:
- Latinos become much more conservative after a generation or two in the US
- They tend to be more hawkish than Whites on the subject of border enforcement (but, notably, not deportation)
Did the Newsome recall, and the largely Democrat-led pandemic response that has disproportionally impacted Latino society, accelerate this trend?
Well, if I have anything to say about it…
