President Obama has been re-elected with strong Latino support

• A historic number – 75 percent of Latinos – voted for Obama’s re-election, according to Latino Decisions exit polls, the highest Latino support for any presidential candidate in the nation’s history.
• Latino voters were key in delivering battleground states.
• ”Many Latinos we polled were nervous over the Ryan budget and its proposed cuts to Medicare and Medicaid,” Barreto says. [emphasis added: comment WTF?  It was Obamacare that did that.]
• ”The enthusiasm of Latino voters in this election reflects not only support for Obama and his policies, but dislike for the policies of Romney and the GOP,” says Cristina Beltran, a professor of cultural and social analysis at New York University.[emphasis added]

Comment:

This factor was completely overlooked.  In fact, I got the impression that Hispanics didn't like Obama.  This support for Obama seems like it came completely out of nowhere.  I didn't see it mentioned anywhere.

If all of this is true as the article claims, this is bad news for Republicans in the years ahead.

I get the feeling that it is a racial thing.  Not much you can do about that.  That battle has already been lost.

Update:

I know I saw something about the Asian vote as well.  But I couldn't find it.  So, I googled Asian vote and came up with this.   Asians tend to vote Democrat and this article says that they are overlooked.  It seems that this is a recurring theme.
