Trump Gains Support Among Chicago Latino Voters
In the aftermath of the 2024 presidential election, it was reported that Donald Trump made significant gains among Latino voters in Chicago. Many Latino residents cited economic policies as a primary reason for their support, despite Trump’s controversial stance on immigration. This shift in voter sentiment highlights the growing complexity of political affiliations within the Latino community, as economic concerns often outweigh other policy considerations. The trend mirrors a nationwide increase in Latino support for Trump, who garnered 45% of the Latino vote, the highest for a Republican candidate since George W. Bush in 2004
