L.A. Latino Leaders, Workers and Community Urge Voters: 'Voten NO en la Proposición 32'
This is a cross-post from the California Labor Federation's blog, Labor's Edge, by Danielle Tipton.
Latinos are among the fastest growing groups of the electorate. About 5 million more Latino voters are eligible to vote this year than in 2008—but historically, voter turnout among Latinos hasn’t been particularly strong. In 2008, only 50% of eligible Latino voters showed up to the polls (according to the Los Angeles Times). But that’s all going to change this year in California, as more and more Latinos are discovering what’s really at stake in the upcoming election if Prop. 32 becomes law.
