NY-SD39: Democrats target Latino voters in Hudson Valley swing district

Recognizing the stakes, state Democrats’ coordinated campaign to win back the House installed a Hispanic constituency organizer in the 18th Congressional District, working out of Newburgh. Campaign staffers are fanning out across the district, and there are plans for bilingual direct voter contacting, event programming, church and small business visits and a voter education town hall. Members of the staff have already fanned out throughout the district.

Romero said that Democrats need to focus on meeting Latino voters where they are.

“There are different aspects that impact the way people view politics here, and I’m specifically referring now to immigrants because a lot of immigrants become citizens and therefore are able to vote,” she said. “We have to remember that they come with a particular worldview and understanding and there is an educational element to it.”
