SHOCKING 2016 POLL: Trump Now Leading GOP Field With Hispanic Voters!

Destroying the inside the beltway narrative that Donald Trump is “bad” for the nation’s Hispanics, a new poll finds that The Donald leads among all the GOP candidates with Hispanic voters!

The latest Public Policy Polling put Trump ahead[1] of every other GOP candidate with Hispanics.

Trump recorded a 34% favorability rating among Hispanics in a national poll conducted by Public Policy Polling (PPP) among 1,087 registered voters between July 20-21.

Trump has made immigration a seminal part of his campaign, receiving praise, but also criticism, from the political left and right.

During a much-publicized visit to the border in Laredo, TX last Thursday, Trump told reporters he thought he would “win the Hispanic vote.”

Gov. Bush (R-FL) follows Trump with a 31% favorability rating among Hispanics, and Senator Cruz is close behind with 30%.

Senators Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Rand Paul (R-KY) both recorded 29%, Gov. Scott Walker (WI-R) 26%, and businesswoman Carly Fiorina 25%.

Rounding out the poll was Gov. Chris Christie (R-NJ) with 21%, and former Gov. Mike Huckabee (R-AR) and neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson, both with 16%.

So, what is this business that Trump is bad for the Hispanic vote again?

And if the rest are following the beltway approved campaign style meant to get the Hispanic vote, why aren’t they doing better with Hispanics at this point?
