Greg Siskind on Immigration Law and Policy: Hispanics Voting With ...

Latino Decisions asked Latino voters why they voted. While 39% said it was to support a Democrat and 15% to support the Republicans, 36% stated their primary reason for voting was to support their community. That probably has something to do with concerns over immigration since that was the second most important issue on their minds and 60% know someone lacking legal immigration status. But the most telling answer on this subject was in response to the question of whether Republican support for comprehensive immigration reform would make them more likely to vote for the GOP candidate. The answers were

31% - more likely

11% - less likely

48% - no effect

10%? - don?t know

?

The President was seen more favorably by 58% of Latino voters as a result of his DACA policy while Mitt Romney was seen less favorably by 57% as a result of his ?self-deport? comments.
