Description
This book presents a comparative analysis of Latino political participation in a national US election. By focusing on case studies of states with the largest Latino populations, the contributors examine each stage of the national campaign to assess media strategies for reaching Latino voters, methods for polling the Latino community, and levels of Latino participation through the primaries, conventions and general election. This collection of data shows the extent to which Latino communities are integrated into national politics and offers a baseline analysis for future study of the increasingly important role of Latinos in the American political process.
