US midterm elections results review: One factor that could cost Donald Trump his Presidency, Republicans their 2028 against Democrats

US midterm elections results aftermath reviews are emerging and one point has come out that swing of Latino voters have played pivotal role behind Democratic Party's electoral sweep in Texas and in battleground House races across United States of America. About one-third of Hispanic voters said they backed the Republican in their local US House race, while roughly 4 in 10 voted for Trump two years ago.

Republicans lost the gains President Trump made with Hispanic voters in 2024. In Texas, every county voted more Democratic than it did two years ago, when Trump beat Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris in the presidential race. But the more heavily Hispanic the county, generally the heavier the shift.

Stern Message for Donald Trump


The swing was especially prominent in Texas, where voters flipped a Senate seat and the governor's office to Democrats along with every statewide office on the ballot.

Roughly 7 in 10 Hispanic voters supported Democrat James Talarico in the US Senate contest, while only about 3 in 10 voted for Republican Ken Paxton. The group was essentially split in the 2024 presidential election, according to AP VoteCast, an extensive survey of voters and nonvoters that aims to tell the story behind election results.

Younger Hispanics' shift was even more pronounced, with swings of around 20 percentage points toward Talarico among Hispanic voters in Texas under 65 years old.

Democrats Win Big in California, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona

Democrats won every House district that touches the US-Mexico border — which includes seats in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California — for the first time since 2008.

Even in the Senate race in Florida, where Republican Senator Ashley Moody managed to narrowly win reelection, less than half of Hispanic voters supported Moody, while Trump definitively won this group two years earlier with 55 per cent of Hispanics' support.

In southwestern Kansas, three Hispanic-majority counties that voted overwhelmingly for Trump flipped to backing Adam Hamilton, who became the first Democrat in nearly a century to win a US Senate contest in the state. Turnout also surged 27 per cent over 2022 in the three counties, Finney, Ford and Seward.

Fourteen Hispanic Democrats were newly elected on Tuesday, 10 of them in districts that are currently represented by Republicans or were redrawn to favour the GOP. The Congressional Hispanic Caucus will have more members than ever before, said Rep. Linda Sanchez of California, chair of the caucus' campaign arm, CHC BOLD PAC.
