Record Latino Turnout for Obama

[AaronMayorga]

On MSNBC's The Cycle, Steve Kornacki noted that a Latino voting group (couldn't catch the name) conducted its final poll, and concluded that 73% of Latino voters will vote for President Obama, breaking the previous record of 72% from Bill Clinton's 1996 campaign.

Then, Touré says that would give Obama Nevada, Colorado, and Virginia.

Game, set, match.

1. Que viva Obama!

2. Turnout vs voter preference

Isn't this the proportion that will be voting for Obama, not the total amount voting?

8. Given Latino population growth

that means many more voters than in 1996.

The future looks bright for the Democrats.
