Poll: Clinton bests Trump among Latino voters in four swing states

Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton is leading Republican nominee Donald Trump among Latino voters in four battleground states, a poll released Tuesday shows. 

In Arizona, Clinton leads Trump by 50 points, 68 percent to 18 percent, among Latino voters, according to the Univision News poll. In Nevada, she leads Trump in the demographic 65 percent to 19 percent. 

{mosads}Among Colorado’s Latino voters, Clinton leads Trump 62 percent to 17 percent, and she’s up 53 percent to 29 percent in Florida. 

The poll follows Trump’s recent, unprecedented trip to Mexico, where he met with Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto and called for an end to illegal immigration. 

But despite his increased outreach efforts, a majority of Latino voters in those four swing states continue to have a negative view of Trump, the poll finds. 

Eight in 10 Latino voters in Arizona, Colorado and Nevada and 7 in 10 in Florida have a negative view of Trump. 

And only one-third of likely Latino voters in the four battleground states surveyed believe Trump will deport all undocumented immigrants living in the U.S., the poll finds. 

While Clinton is besting Trump among Latinos, she is still pulling in less support among the demographic than President Obama did when he campaigned for reelection in 2012. 

For example, while Clinton has 53 percent support among Latino voters in Florida, Obama carried 60 percent of the vote among that group. 

The poll also found a significant number of Latino voters consider her to be a liar. 

In Arizona, 43 percent consider Clinton to be dishonest, compared to the 43 percent who do not. 

In Colorado, Florida and Nevada, 42 percent to 49 percent of Latino voters consider the former secretary of State dishonest. 

The poll was conducted among 1,600 registered Latino voters between Aug. 24 and Sept. 3 and has a margin of error of 4.9 percentage points.
