Republican candidate Donald Trump is
polling better than expected with Hispanic voters, on par with previous GOP nominee Mitt Romney, The Hill reports.
At the time, Romney's support among Hispanic voters was seen as dismal, to the point that the Republican National Committee asked for a "post-mortem" to show just how they could win the support of Hispanics and other demographics.
Despite his controversial rhetoric on illegal immigration and his call for a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border, there's little evidence to suggest that Trump is lagging among Hispanic voters.In 2012, President Barack Obama beat Romney by 47 percent among Hispanic voters in Nevada. According to a recent Marist poll for NBC News/The Wall Street Journal, Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton leads with Hispanics in the state by a margin of 35 percent.
