Now that the 2018 midterm elections have ended, a lot of analysis will begin about U.S. Latino voters and how they performed across different states and on a national level. Knowing that we will get more and more specific information in the future, we did want to at least some exit poll data about Latinos, both from the more mainstream National Election Pool (CNN, ABC, CBS and NBC) as well as from Latino Decisions’ Election Eve Poll, which LD did with Asian American Decisions and the African American Research Collaborative. This data does not cover every state that voted on Tuesday.
Here goes (graphics of National Election Poll are from CNN; the Election Eve Poll images are from Latino Decisions):
