Latino Voters:

The conventional view, espoused by the Bush family and its retainer Karl Rove, is that a GOP presidential candidate needs 40 percent of the nationwide Hispanic vote to win. Trump is at roughly 20 percent.

“The national polls are distorted,” Manafort said. “To get a national sample they rely too much on Hispanics from New York and California, which is where large populations are, but also where most of the radical Hispanics are.”

“But if you look at Hispanics in states such as Ohio, Pennsylvania and even Florida, you see a different picture. We’re going to target Hispanic voters in those and other swing states.”

“The message is going to be jobs, national security, terrorism, family values and education,” he said. “In that order.”

“Their concerns are the same as the white working families.”

So his candidate doesn’t need 40 percent of Latino voters nationwide. “If we get into the high 20s in those states with Hispanics, we will win them, and in Florida we can do even better if we do what we need to do in the Cuban community.”

The Women:

“Our numbers even now are not that far out of whack,” Manafort said. “We’re down 12 among women, but up 20 among men.”

“Hillary is the one who’s got a gender gap. And while we are behind among women over all, we’re ahead among white women even now. We’ll get some black and Hispanic women as we go along.”

Because unskewing polls worked so well for Romney...


EDIT: Read the whole article. It's hilarious. For example: Trump has a team of advisors gathering info to brief him, but on top of that he is also gathering info on his own and HIS summaries are WAY more accurate than the summaries of people who do nothing else all day long.
