Super Tuesday Latino Vote a Watershed Moment

According to Tyche Hendricks and Anastasia Ustinova of the San Francisco Chronicle, "A surge in new citizenship and voter registration among Latinos combined with the highly competitive primaries on Super Tuesday to make this presidential election season a turning point in national Latino political influence." The results also seem to confirm that Senator Clinton has built a clear lead in attracting Latino voters in this race. According to an MSNBC exit poll, Clinton won a majority of Latino votes in several states with high proportions of Latino voters, including New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts and California .
