Another exit poll showed a "major reversal" among a key constituency — and could prove ominous for Vice President Kamala Harris.

Latino men are breaking for former President Donald Trump over Harris 54 percent to 44 percent, according to an NBC News exit poll. The outlet called it a "major reversal" from four years ago, when Latino men supported Joe Biden by a whopping 59 percent to 36 percent.

Additionally, Harris's support slipped among Latino women, according to the poll. Harris has a 25-point advantage with that group, down from Biden’s 39-point margin.

The macho men didn't want a woman president. The Puerto Rican outrage didn't move the needle for Latinos. They would rather have a man who insults them than a woman. 🤦‍♂️

Not to mention that some latinos emigrated from countries ruled by strongmen, but thats probably not why they left.

It was never a toss up, and Trump pretty much had it in the bag a week ago. The mass-mail voting tactics of 2020 created a bar that the dems will never be able to reach again. Although if they ran proper primaries and let the popular person win (they colluded twice against Bernie) they will bounce back, as the system is designed to swing back and forth. They have some formidable people on their bench like Shapiro and Newsom and Whitmer. Kamala was far from the best candidate which was proven when she got 1% in the 2020 primary after having all the early hype and donors in her favor.

I want either Shapiro or Newsome in 2028. I was one of the few democrats saying to stick with Biden. The South and Midwest will never elect a female president.

Another good option would be Lloyd Austin though I’m not sure if he’s even really a Democrat. He would easily win the Super Tuesday primaries in the South.

The Democrats can’t go with a female nominee again. The South and Midwest do not want a female president it should be fairly obvious now. I think Newsome should be the pick for 2028 he’s already got a lot of standing within the party and he’s a charismatic guy similar to Clinton and Obama.

Plus if Newsome runs and the republicans repeal the 22nd amendment he can sh t talk Don Jr about him having his sloppy seconds.

I don't have enough feel for South or Midwest but this seems like it's close to truth. And unfortunate.

I have lived a big chunk of my life in both. I live in the south now. The Democrats are kidding themselves if they go with another female nominee. VP would be fine obviously they won 2020 but not as president.

Lloyd Austin is sounding better by the second.

Kinda late to the party!

Biden not dropping out until it was too late doomed us. We could have seen that people would not vote for a woman in the primaries instead of the real election. This loss will have great impact for decades to come. They will replace the old hard right Supreme court judges with younger ones and we will be stuck with them for a long time. By the end of this Trump will have appointed 5 Supreme Court Justices.
