Strength in Diversity: The Complex Hispanic Vote
Central Florida's Hispanic community is a mosaic of different cultures from many countries in Central and South America and the Caribbean. The Hispanic vote is a strong force in Florida elections, but it is not a monolith. There are movements and shifts within the Hispanic voting community, which draws strength from its diversity and unity from a shared language. But differences in culture also can pose challenges to voting outreach.
In celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month, we look to this year's theme: “Pioneers of Change: Shaping the Future.” We honor the trailblazers and listen to rising Hispanic leaders in Central Florida tell us where they stand on key voting issues and their plans for change.
Panelists include:
- Cecilia Gonzalez
- Ricardo Negron-Almodovar
- Carla Rivera
- Samuel Vilchez Santiago
- Moderator Kirstin Delgado
