Latinos demanded attention in this election because they had simply  become too numerous to ignore, numbering more than 50 million, according to the  2010 U.S. Census. That is larger than the entire national populations of Cuba,  Venezuela, Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic combined.

The Latino Decisions polls indicate that nationwide and in battleground states  Obama won Latino voter support over Romney by historic margins –  72  percent to 23 percent nationwide, including: in Colorado, Obama won Latino  voters by 87 percent-10 percent margin; in New Mexico, by a 77 percent-21  percent margin; in Nevada, by an 80 percent-17 percent margin; in Ohio, by an 82  percent-17 percent margin; in Virginia, by a 66 percent-31 percent margin; and  in Florida, by a 58 percent-40 percent margin.

Latinos have had a huge impact on such a close won race, it is great so see Latinos voices being heard!
