The Young Latino Voter

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

There is no precedent for the impact young Latino voters could have in 2020 as they lead the wave of
demographic transformation of the U.S. electorate. Young Latino voters are U.S.-born and politically
engaged, with an eye on the American promise of equal opportunity that their parents helped
ingrain. Solid gains in buying power, college attainment, steady earnings, and civic participation over
the past several years give young Hispanics growing clout and political muscle.

This research examines the issues, needs and aspirations that move young Latino voters. The findings
provide fresh knowledge and actionable insights anchored in the belief that an understanding of
young Latino voter engagement and behavior are requisites for political candidates, civic institutions
and community organizations across the country. The learnings fall into five areas:

• Who they are

• Their state of civic consciousness

• Their stance on COVID-19, racial injustice, nativism and inequality

• Their role in the political process

• Their intent to engage and vote in the 2020 general election
