In 2012 32% of the population (based on Census) was Latino, but only 18% of voters were Latino. While there are undocumented immigrants counted in the Census, she is not wrong that Latinos don't vote in AZ in proportion to their share of the population. If they did, she probably would never have been elected and Trump would certainly lose. But as Latinos continue to grow in share, even with low participation the state may reach a tipping point like NM where it doesn't matter. And 2016 may be that election tipping point.
