The Hispanic Federation says 88 percent of the Latino voters it registered cast ballots in the 2020 election, a turnout rate 22 percentage points higher than the national figure of 66 percent, which was the highest since 1900. The group laid out those numbers in a June 3 column for El Diario by its president, Frankie Miranda, published ahead of New York’s June 23 primary.

That primary was set to decide party nominees for the November 3 general election. The column listed races for governor, lieutenant governor, state attorney general, state comptroller, the state’s entire delegation to the U.S. House of Representatives, and state senate and assembly seats.

Jessica Orozco Guttlein, the federation’s senior vice president of public policy and communications, outlined what is at stake nationally. “Although on November 3 we will not vote for president or vice president, we will elect or reelect all 435 members of the House of Representatives, at least 35 national senators, and three dozen state governors,” she said, in remarks translated from Spanish.
