The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Reps have been make gains in the population, and are now at relative parity with Dems. Reps should be welcoming Hispanic folks, making them citizens, and getting them to vote. Reps have made strides among the Hispanic population (especially those who don't have a college degree and identify as protestant). Makes sense since a lot of that group is religious/conservative, and would naturally gravitate towards Reps if the Reps weren't so hostile to them. They also care about the economy (as do most people).

“It is also important to remember that the Latino population is extremely dynamic,” Mr. Fraga said. “There are a tremendous number of newly eligible voters in every election cycle. And what we perceive as a change or shift for Latinos is going to be disproportionately due to new voters.”

“About one third of Latino voters weren’t even in the electorate before 2016,” he added.
