SPECIFICALLY, THE LATINO VOTE.
HERE'S PATRICIA GOMEZ OF
MILWAUKEE PBS.
>> ON THE REPORT OF THE PEW
RESEARCH CENTER, LATINOS WILL BE
THE LARGEST GROUP OF VOTERS IN
THE NOVEMBER PRESIDENTIAL
ELECTION.
FOR SOME, THEY ARE THE SLEEPING
GIANT THAT IS JUST BEGINNING TO
WAKE UP.
ACCORDING TO THE PEW RESEARCH
CENTER, A RECORD OF 32 MILLION
LATINOS ARE ELIGIBLE TO VOTE IN
THE 2020 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
183,000 LATINOS ARE ABLE TO VOTE
IN WISCONSIN.
>> ARE YOU GOING TO SWING AND
TRY AND JUMP ON THE OTHER ONE?
>> THIS MAN IS A RETIRED COMBAT
MARINE WHO HAS SERVED TWO TOURS
IN IRAQ AND WANTS PRESIDENT
TRUMP TO BE REELECTED.
>> I BELIEVE THE LATINO VOTE WAS
ALWAYS THERE.
IT WAS ALWAYS STRONG.
IT WAS OFFICE BIG.
BUT NOW THE LATINOS ARE LOOKING
AT THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND
THEY'RE SEEING A STRAIGHT
CONTRAST BETWEEN THE DEMOCRATS
AND THE REPUBLICANS.
THE REPUBLICAN PARTY SEEMS TO BE
MORE ALIGNED WITH THE LATINO
VOTERS.
THEY'RE CONSERVATIVES,
FAMILY-ORIENTED AND THEY'RE
CHURCH-GOERS.
>> NEUMANN ORTIZ LEADS ONE OF
THE BIGGEST ORGANIZATIONS IN THE
COUNTRY.
SUPPORTING THE BIDEN-HARRIS
TICKET.
>> IT'S INSPIRING BECAUSE THIS
YEAR LATINOS NATIONWIDE ARE THE
SECOND LARGEST VOTING GROUP
AFTER WHITE VOTERS.
AND IN WISCONSIN, THAT POWER IN
NUMBERS IS ALSO TRUE BECAUSE WE
SAW HOW THAT WAS -- THE IMPACT
THAT THAT HAD IN THE 2018
ELECTIONS WITH THE ELECTION OF A
PRO-IMMIGRANT GOVERNOR, GOVERNOR
EVERS, AND LEADING INTO THIS
2020 ELECTION, THE NUMBERS OF
LATINOS IS MORE THAN THE MARGIN
OF VICTORY IN ANY PRESIDENTIAL
OR STATE ELECTION.
>> REGARDING WHY THEY SUPPORTED
CANDIDATES, RODRIGUEZ AND
NEUMANN ORTIZ ENVISION DIFFERENT
SCENARIOS.
>> THE POLICIES THAT HAVE BEEN
PASSED ARE UNCONSCIONABLE, THE
SEPARATION OF FAMILIES, THE
JAILG OF CHILDREN.
IT'S JUST THE REPEAL OF DACA
THAT WAS WON UNDER THE OBAMA
ADMINISTRATION.
IT'S JUST RELENTLESS.
AND WE HAVE THE POWER TO DEFEAT
THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION.
THIS IS A FAR RIGHT WHITE
NATIONALALIST ADMINISTRATION,
THE PEOPLE THAT ARE IN IT, THEIR
IDEOLOGY.
WE HAVE THE POWER TO DEFEAT
THEM.
IT'S A CRITICAL ELECTION THAT WE
WIN AND THAT LATINOS ARE THE
ONES TO DELIVER THAT ELECTORAL
VICTORY TO A BIDEN AND HARRIS
WHO ARE RUNNING ON A
PRO-IMMIGRANT, PRO-WORKER
PLATFORM.
>> WITH DONALD TRUMP'S TAX CUTS,
CORPORATIONS WERE ABLE TO
PROVIDE MORE JOBS, BUT WITH
SUPPLY AND DEMAND THEY STARTED
RAISING.
MY INCREASE IN PAY WENT FROM A
LITTLE UNDER $43,000 TO $70,000
RIGHT NOW.
SO THAT IS A BIG INCREASE ON MY
ANNUAL SALARY.
SO I BELIEVE THAT WAS BECAUSE OF
TRUMP.
>> THAT WAS PATRICIA
