hillary wins

I have been searching for some news media to say Hillary carried Texas and I have found It. The Lations newspapers are saying Hillary carried texas!
Hillary Clinton won the Texas primary, and she has Latino voters to thank. The
reasons, according to Spanish-language media, have more to do with politics and name recognition than racial prejudices.

Clinton proved that she still commands an overwhelming lead over Barack Obama among Latino voters, who made up nearly one third of Texas voters in Tuesday’s record-breaking turnout. According to CNN exit polling on March 4, Latino voters in the Texas primary supported Clinton over Obama by a two-to-one margin.

To understand the candidate’s continued popularity among Latinos in Texas, one need only read the Hispanic press, which has been following Clinton’s campaign closely.

In his article, "Mexican Tastes Do Not Include Obama," Raoul Lowery Contreras writes in Spanish-language newsweekly HispanicVista.com that the Latino vote is no monolith.

Obama may have done well with the Virginia "Hispanic vote," Contreras writes, but that was no indicator for Texas.

"Virginia Hispanics are mostly Salvadorans," he notes. "With few exceptions, Salvadorans came here to escape the civil war that Salvadoran leftists lost to right-of-center conservative forces. They carry with them leftist souls that have no embodiment in American politics other than in Obama, the most liberal senator in the Senate."

Contreras predicted that most Mexican Americans in Texas, like the Mexicans in California and Arizona, would not vote for Obama.

Despite differences in the Hispanic populations of California and Texas – the Texans are largely Mexican-Americans born in the state, who speak English well, in addition to Spanish – both groups solidly backed Hillary.

Hispanic voters gave Clinton the win in California, according to a Feb. 29 article in Spanish-language La Opinión, a Los Angeles daily newspaper.

"Latinos have kept alive Hillary's campaign," said Andy Hernández, a Houston, Texas Democratic activist and Clinton supporter, in La Opinión. If Obama wins 40 percent of the Latino vote in Texas, he said, he will have gained much ground on his opponent.

CNN exit polls gave him 32 percent.
