US Politics · Texas Latinos turning on Trump, but not necessarily embracing Democrats, Texas Tribune reports

In a pivotal shift ahead of the 2026 election, Latino voters in Texas are moving away from President Donald Trump, driven by frustration over the economy and the administration's mass deportation campaign, according to a report from the Texas Tribune. But strategists and voters interviewed by the Tribune caution that the swing does not represent a wholesale return to the Democratic Party, leaving the outcome of the state's tossup Senate race uncertain.
