Latino voters have higher than average ballot signature rejection rates in Washington state

Hispanic  or   Latino  voters, according to the U.S. Census Bureau Adams, Benton, Chelan, Douglas, Franklin, Grant, Walla Walla and Yakima counties. According to a   consent decree  in a lawsuit brought under the federal   Voting Rights Act  in Yakima County, the Washington Secretary of State matches Yakima voter last names to a “Spanish surname” list provided by the U.S. Justice Department in 2004. InvestigateWest also used this list to analyze signature rejections. Latinos make up 37% of the total population in these eight counties, and 21% of the voting population. White, non-Hispanic voters make up most of the remaining voting population in these counties. While the eight counties account for 10% of the statewide voting population, they account for 29% of the Latino voting population in Washington.

Fact check US: Has Donald Trump really made a breakthrough in the Latino electorate?

The US elections delivered plenty of surprises on 3 November. While the results eventually showed that Trump had well and truly lost, we also saw him make inroads on several fronts. More than 74 million people cast their ballot for him, compared to 63 million in 2016. That margin of progress came from multiple categories of voters, including rural, lower-middle-class and Latino voters. That last group, in particular, has shocked many observers, especially given the president’s attacks against Latino immigrants. A month and a half later, it’s time to take a closer look at the data and try to analyze the voting behavior of that population.
