Biden campaign launching program to engage Latino voters

Source: The Hill

03/19/24 5:00 AM ET


The Biden campaign is launching a national program on Tuesday to engage and mobilize Latino voters, coinciding with President Biden’s travel to Nevada and Arizona.

The president will officially kick off Latinos con Biden-Harris during a stop in Arizona, where he will be joined by Latino organizers, the campaign said. Tuesday’s launch is intended to jumpstart a series of events to engage, train and mobilize Latino supporters, a fast-growing demographic that will play a significant role in November’s election.

“The Latino vote was critical to the President’s victory in 2020, and 2024 will be no different,” campaign manager Julie Chávez Rodríguez said in a statement. “Latinos con Biden-Harris will be essential to activating and mobilizing Latinos across the country, and importantly, is another way we are making clear with action that we are investing aggressively into earning the Latino vote.”

“Our community has deep roots in organizing, and we are excited to harness that skillset to fight for our families, our communities, and against Donald Trump’s anti-Latino agenda. There’s too much at stake in this election,” she added. The campaign will hold events in Nevada, Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Wisconsin this week to highlight the new effort.

is that sometimes a reflexive verb has a different meaning because it is reflexive. Ve, which is a form of ir means go. Vete, which is a form of irse means go away.

I think that trying is good. And certainly anyone who was trying in good faith to understand what you said would understand.

elections, to make sure that Maria Corina Machado is a candidate because otherwise Latinos are not going to be happy and many of them will not vote for Biden.

I know a lot of Latinos, that is what they tell me, no help to Venezuela, no vote for Biden. It doesn't matter how one tries to explain to them that not voting for Biden will be a terrible price to pay if the buffoon wins, and it will be worse for Latinos, and other non-white people.

Venezuelans want Maduro and his regime out, Maria Corina Machado is the solution.

I have never understood why the USA has been so idle in getting rid of the Chavez, and now Maduro regime, it goes against USA interests in all respects. Russia, Iran, China, and other terrorist groups have been sending their people to Venezuela. That country represents a geographic threat to the USA because it is close enough that attacks can be planned, missiles can be sent from there and rapidly reach USA. USA should have taken action when Chavez was alive to get him, and the Cubans out of power in Venezuela, they allowed the regime to grow and now the USA has a migration problem, and the other problems that I mention above.

Biden, help Venezuela and you will have the entire Latino votes.

The U.S. started reimposing sanctions at the end of January for that purpose - https://www.state.gov/venezuela-sanctions-actions-and-supporting-democracy/

And to self-delete a post, look for the word "Powers" under the post you want to delete and click on it and that should open up a menu with the option to self-delete.

We can't cede the Latino vote to Trump. Voting for republicans is voting against your own self-interests. It's the same for any group of voters, not only Latinos. Even republicans are voting against their own self-interests. They just don't know it. They're too caught up in the hate.
