Reports highlight Latino support and gains in Trump-backed counties

The post-election reports offer two distinct estimates of Latino support. Asharq, citing an AP post-election poll, says about six in 10 Latino voters in Texas chose Talarico. Asharq separately reports that he beat Paxton 58.7% to 39.5% in Tarrant County, which Trump carried by about five points in 2024. Axios puts Talarico’s Latino vote share at 68%, and says he carried Hidalgo, Cameron and Webb counties by 46, 38 and 47 points, respectively; Trump had narrowly carried those counties in 2024.
