Latino voters, who swung toward President Donald Trump in 2024, boomeranged back to Democrats last week, signaling the fraying of his coalition less than one year into his second term.

They'll be back to the GOP next election. As soon as another woman decides "it's her turn" to be the Dem nominee.

I'm not convinced that is why the Dems chose fmr VP Harris in 2024.
imo, that scenario is more complicated than that.

Would have alienated a big group of their voters (women) if Dems went with anyone else. Black women, the most reliable Dem voters, may have decided to stay at home on election day.

That's the price Dems pay when Joe proudly declared that he was going to DEI-hire for the veep spot.

Trump picked a guy with very little experience in anything but finance, Vance.
Harris had been an AG and then Senator for twice as long as Vance had been a Senator, so more experience there too.

I'm not saying she wasn't qualified. But telling 75-80% of the voting public that they wouldn't have been considered for the position based on the color of their skin or what they have dangling between their legs isn't the best method of winning people over. Affirmative action isn't a huge plus when running for office.
