Nevada Warning Signs, Latino Vote, and Immigration

The latest early voting numbers are in, and they reveal surprising gains for Republicans, including an unexpected lead in Nevada. Meanwhile, Democrats face an uphill battle in key battleground states like Georgia and Michigan. Ravi explains what’s driving these trends and what they suggest about the final stretch of the election.

He then welcomes Paola Ramos, MSNBC contributor and author of Defectors: The Rise of the Latino Far Right and What It Means for America, for an in-depth conversation about the Latino vote. Ravi and Paola explore the evolving dynamics within the Latino community, discussing everything from demographic shifts to the complexities of identity politics. Finally, they examine the strategies the Democratic and Republican parties have used to connect with Latino voters and why this diverse electorate could ultimately determine the outcome of the election.
