UCLA Latino Policy and Politics Institute (LPPI) in Latino Rebels: “Reasons Why My Primos Didn’t Vote (Opinion)”


Important analysis conducted by UCLA’s Latino Policy and Politics Initiative detailed that the Latinx electorate voted for Biden over Trump by a 3-to-1 margin across critical states. Moreover, the impact of Latinx votes was felt in states with large Latinx populations and states where the Latinx population is smaller but whose impact is just as strong when participating in multiracial coalitions—perhaps best exemplified by Arizona and Georgia.
