Vice President Kamala Harris is making a strategic move to solidify her backing among Latino voters as she wraps up her tour of the West Coast with a stop in Las Vegas this Sunday. This visit follows recent polling data from NBC News, Telemundo, and CNBC, which indicates that Harris is leading former President Donald Trump among Latino registered voters, although she trails behind other recent Democratic nominees.
A Harris campaign official highlighted the tightening race in Nevada, emphasizing the importance of the Latino vote in the upcoming November elections. Democrats are facing challenges in maintaining support within this demographic, especially in comparison to the levels of support President Biden received from Latino voters in the 2020 election.
