Unlike what some non-Latino reporters might tell you (seriously, you have to see who is criticizing this poll), the following poll conducted by Latino Decisions pretty much confirms yet again what anyone in the Latino media space has been telling you all along: immigration still matters to U.S. Latino voters.
National Poll of U.S. Latinos Finds Overwhelming Support For Executive Action on Immigration by Latino Rebels
You can access the toplines here, but this week’s poll is pretty much consistent with how this issue has resonated with U.S. Latino voters in recent years.
As for that reporter who has serious issues with the poll (it’s Nate Cohn of The New York Times, you know that Nate Cohn), this is our answer to him:
Reporters like @Nate_Cohn find it incredulous to believe that polling from @LatinoDecisions is not accurate b/c Cohn is not Latin@. #Truth

As well as this:
@JeronimoSaldana @LatinoDecisions btw coming from guy who proclaimed that Latin@s were becoming white when study authors said no @Nate_Cohn

And this too:
@Nate_Cohn fascinating that Cohn's squawking about transparency when he's notorious for misreporting @LatinoDecisions

Because in the end, Cohn will never get it, no matter how hard he tries. And it is getting really annoying, especially since in the end, Cohn needs to do a better job trying to understand the dynamics of the U.S. Latinos instead of pretending to be the smartest non-Latino in the room who has no clue about U.S. Latinos.
