Hispanic Voters Population in the 2020 US Election Are Expected to Increase
The Hispanic voters in the 2020 US Election are expected to rise again based on records. As the 2020 election in the United States of America is nearing, many predictions are being made on the possible outcomes for the upcoming elections. The previous results of the 2020 election in Arizona had shown balanced outcomes for major parties competing in the elections.
There is a large population of Hispanic communities in the Republican state of Arizona. The population of this community in the state is at a growing trend. This population is predicted to be more on the Democratic side than Republican. These predictions regarding the Hispanic voters in the 2020 US Election, however, are not assured despite the information gathered through registration for voting where the outcome and demographic data offer no assurance of the support for either party.
According to statistics, there are only 800,000 Hispanic voters in Arizona and there are 2,300,000 non-Hispanic voters in Arizona. This shows that out of the total voting population in the state of Arizona, 25.81 percent are from Hispanic origins while 74.19 % are not from Hispanic origin.
Even though there is an increasing trend of the Hispanic population in the United States of America and there is also an increasing trend of the Hispanic voters population in the country, they are still outnumbered by the White non-Hispanic voters of the United States.
There were 68 percent of White non-Hispanic registered voters in 2016 and the remaining is Hispanic. In 2018, 70 percent were White non-Hispanic registered voters and the rest were Hispanic voters. From the statistics of the past three elections from 2014, 2016, and 2018, despite the increasing trend of Hispanic voters' population in the state of Arizona; they are still outnumbered by the non-Hispanic population in the state.
The turnout for Hispanic population voting had increased by 25% between the years of 2014 and 2018 while the White non-Hispanic population had increased by 17 percent. 63 percent of the total eligible Hispanic populations in the state were registered to vote in the 2018 elections which are just eleven percent lower than the percentage of the total registered voters from the eligible population of White non-Hispanics in Arizona. This shows the great contribution of the votes provided by the Hispanic voting community in the state.
The Hispanic community in Arizona had encountered the type of anti-immigrant sentiment that had reached multiple media during the reign of the current President of the United States of America, Donald Trump.
According to Professor Stephen Nuño-Pérez, this situation had inspired the Hispanic community in the state to form a group against Trump's leadership. These Hispanic activists had motivated others of their kind to support their cause and be politically informed and involved with the upcoming 2020 elections. This situation increases the likelihood of the predictability of turnout of Hispanic voters in the 2020 US Election.
Professor Nuño-Pérez also shared with the public that these Hispanic activists representing the Hispanic population in the state and other places in the US are participating in various campaigns and now work in legislative offices. They are acquiring more financial and moral support from groups who are supporting their political views and cause.
