Once again, a @nytimes poll is undercounting Texas Latinos in a poll and making sweeping generalizations. Here is the link that boldly claims that Latinos in Texas are rushing to Trump. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/26/upshot/texas-polls-biden-trump.html

Ok, stick with me here. The poll had a total of 802 respondents across ALL OF TEXAS.

The Latino subgroup in that poll is 26%.

This is what the crosstabs say:

That would mean that this poll asked just 209 Texas Latinos.

209 Latinos.

And wait, it gets even more interesting....

Texas' Latino population is close to 40%.

And, this poll asked only 14% of 18-29 yrs old Texas and ANYONE who knows anything about Latino voters in Texas is that it is very NEW and YOUNG.

So, @UpshotNYT makes yet another bold claim on a poll that included 209 Texas Latinos and

I would guess that the number of young Latinos is not even 50 voters in this poll.

This, at a time when all I am getting out of Texas is news that young Latinos are voting early.

Am not saying that Trump won't do well with Texas Latinos, but the one thing I still think this latest poll ignores is the recent work to get young Texas Latinos to vote.

Veremos but once again @UpshotNYT's Latino ignorance is clear.

What is doesn't take into account, besides such a small sample size, is what has happened in Texas with Latino voters. Another miss.
