Dogpiling on the Hispanic voters who don't vote

View the original

As I said after the early voting totals were in, Hispanics are not voting. The Hispanic population could be the largest block of voters in Harris County unless they don't vote. And they proved that for the City races.

According to Marc Campos of Campos Communications Hispanics voted in the 9-11% range in the city elections and he has some pretty strong words for all Hispanics:
I’m going to recommend that the next Houston Area Latino Summit focus on Latino voter participation. For now, our “Si Se Puede” slogan has been temporarily revoked. We can’t Si Se Puede if we keep doing No Se Puede! All of us Latinos that are involved in H-Town politics ought be hanging our heads in shame right now.
