This is actually the big news of the day.
Clinton Campaign Hires Latino Decisions for Polling
Here is the website for Latino Decisions:
Latino Decisions :: Home
They also have an interactive tool there, called the "GOP threshold calculator"
Latino Decisions :: 2016 Calculator
It's based on pure math. You can use the calculator yourself.
Latino Decisions is the prime pollster for things Latino in the USA, so this is an interesting partnership. And shows that the Clinton camp is serious about absolutely nailing the Latino vote in 2016. With Trump's release of his immigration reform 'platform', if you will, I expect some polling results about peoples' impressions of this to come in very soon.
FYI. Feel free to discuss what you think of the partnership.
Clinton Campaign Hires Latino Decisions for Polling
The Hillary Clinton presidential campaign has hired Latino-owned firm Latino Decisions to join the campaign's polling team, sources told NBC News Latino Wednesday.
The hiring of Latino Decisions brings aboard significant knowledge to the campaign about Latino voters that will continue to build up the outreach efforts of the Clinton campaign into the Latino community.
The Clinton campaign did not immediately respond to emails and a call about the hiring.
The Clinton campaign has gone on an unprecedented hiring spree of Latino outreach specialists, such as Amanda Renteria, their National Political Director, and Lorella Praeli, the campaign's Latino Outreach Director.
The firm's co-Principles, Matt Barreto and Gary Segura, bring with them a significant amount of academic heft to their polling operation. Barreto is a professor of political science and Chicano Studies at UCLA and Segura is a professor of political science at Stanford University.
Michael Jones-Correa, a professor of political science at Cornell, welcomed the news about Latino Decisions as a step forward for the Clinton team.
"Latino Decisions has developed a methodologically-sound, data-driven approach to polling Latino voters. Given that the road to the White House cuts through the Latino community, the Clinton campaign is fortunate - and smart - to have them on board," Correa said.
