Read excerpt
Many of the most competitive House districts this year, in states from Texas to Florida, California to Pennsylvania, have majority or near-majority Latino electorates. In 2024, Donald Trump’s success in appealing to Hispanic working-class voters, particularly young men, fueled his return to the White House and put the political world on notice. Strategists even raised the prospect of a realignment that could give the GOP a formidable edge for years to come. Just one election cycle later, however
