Trump’s Negatives Among Hispanics Rise

February 25, 2016 · 7:30 am ET · 106 Comments

A new Washington Post-Univision poll finds 8 in 10 Hispanic voters have an unfavorable view of Donald Trump. That includes more than 7 in 10 who have a “very unfavorable” impression of him, which is more than double the percentage of any other major candidate.

“Should Trump become the Republican nominee, his current low standing among Hispanic voters could jeopardize the party’s hopes of winning the general election in November. In current matchups with Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton, Trump scores worse among Hispanics than any of the three other leading Republican candidates — Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and Ohio Gov. John Kasich.”
