** Latino voters, naturalized immigrant voters and the 2020 election
------------------------------------------------------------
This year’s electorate is projected to be more diverse than ever, with 32 million Latinos eligible to vote, a greater number than black eligible voters for the first time. Our latest research also shows that 23 million immigrants (with roots from all over the world) will be eligible to vote, accounting for roughly 10% of all eligible voters nationally. Eligible voters are adult U.S. citizens. Below are links to some of our latest work on Latino voters and immigrant voters in the 2020 election.
