The slow MS vote count ain’t nothing but a result of a racist system that can’t handle that they were outsmarted and outvoted by Black folk.

From one of our own here at the REPS Lab, Rodolfo Solis (@solisrodolfo.bsky.social), on the midterms and Latino partisanship: www.dallasnews.com/opinion/comm... @repslab.bsky.social

South Texas swung to Democrats. Latino Republicans offer clues about why.

South Texas swung to Democrats. Did voters change their beliefs? In my Dallas Morning News op-ed, I examine how Latino Republicans judged party fit—and why even deeply felt allegiance could be conditional. Thanks to @scholars.org for the help! www.dallasnews.com/opinion/comm...

Now in @jepsjournal.bsky.social issue on validating treatments. @nicolehufman.bsky.social, Veronica & I were curious about if the context where whites learned about their declining status affects responses. We found it doesn't. We also found no treatment effects. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Folks should check out this (open access) article from Dr Solís providing great context for Latino Republican partisanship. Folks offer nuanced links between their panethnic attachments and partisanship, among other themes. journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10....

An older painting I made while thinking about how large systems tend to recede into the background for some, while shaping the everyday realities of others. The original was stolen, but the questions behind it have stayed with me.

We held a great event today with the UTRGV Political Science Association student group. Our Hispanic Heritage Month event was “Latino Voters in the 2024 Presidential Election & Beyond.” Special shout out to my co-panelists Richard Longoria, Sarah Perez, and Rodolfo Solis!
