Kornacki: Major Shift Toward Trump in Latino Belt

Sunday on "Meet The Press," NBC elections analyst Steve Kornacki ran down some of the voter registration data and demographic polling in Pennsylvania that sounds like pretty good news for the Trump campaign.

"Some people call this the Latino belt of Pennsylvania. These are counties that have some small to mid-sized cities with rapidly growing Latino populations. And we've been talking about Trump improving, relative to 2020 and 2016, among Hispanic voters. Well, you can see it," he said about the Reading-Allentown area.,

"Reading, Pennsylvania is 70% Latino. It was overwhelmingly Democratic in 2020, Joe Biden won by 45 points. But look, that's down almost 20 points from 2012. Hazelton, Pennsylvania, is more than 60% Hispanic. In 2012, Democrats won it narrowly, it's now a double-digit Trump place. Allentown has come down 10 points in its margin for Democrats."
