Since Democrats have been in control of Congress and the White House, the party’s popularity has plummeted.
While this trend can be seen across demographic lines, it appears that a few voting blocs have been especially outraged by the far-left policies of Democratic officials.
Surveys show that Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and elected Democrats on Capitol Hill are experiencing record-low approval ratings.
This has led many Americans to abandon the party and become either Republican voters or independents.
One recent poll revealed that Hispanic Democrats are among the most likely to turn their backs on the party.
As The Hill reported:
The poll, formulated and conducted by a Latino Democratic pollster in partnership with a conservative Spanish network, shows some gains for the GOP among Hispanics and finds problems in the community for Democrats.
More Hispanic Democrats than Hispanic Republicans are considering leaving their party “by a double-digit margin.”
Those who are leaving often become independents or ally with third parties, trends show, although many demonstrate strong alignment with Republicans on some controversial issues.
Overall, 48 percent of American Hispanics identify as Democrats, while 23 percent identify as Republicans.
While Hispanics have long been more closely aligned with Democrats than the GOP, that tide appears to be turning.
A number of prominent Republicans have weighed in on Twitter to offer their reaction to the shift.
Miami DEMOCRAT pollster: "DeSantis has earned a 14 point swing in two years. The terrible polling for Democrats seems to hinge on Hispanic voters. 51% view Biden negatively. Among Cuban Hispanics, Biden’s disapproval climbs to 59 percent." https://t.co/FUYWCcPTB4

An RMG Research poll found 48% of Hispanic voters now support Republicans & 46% support Democrats.
That’s a 42% SWING towards Republicans since 2018.
I guess Go Woke Go Broke applies with your voter base too.

Biden and Democrats’ failed policies failed the Hispanic community.

So this is not about race. It is however about issues and substance." pic.twitter.com/76gmt65zod

The new poll also provided some good news for Donald Trump, as Newsmax explained:
Though President Joe Biden was given a 48% approval rating by Hispanics who were surveyed, former President Donald Trump is favored over Biden, according to the poll.
When asked whom they would vote for if the elections were held today, 20.4% said Trump, while 18.3% said Joe Biden.
Among Hispanic Republicans, 67% disapprove or strongly disapprove of Biden’s job performance, whereas 73% of Hispanic Democrats approve or strongly approve.
Even mainstream media outlets like MSNBC have been forced to face the facts, as evidenced in the following video clip.
Are you happy to see Hispanic Americans move away from the Democratic Party?
