Someone posted on here that WI's relative closeness in 2020-PRES was partly due to significant R swings in Latino-heavy parts of Milwaukie.
Anecdotally, when I was text banking for the Biden campaign I noticed quite a few potential voters with Hispanic sounding names in AZ and WI either refusing to answer (possibly due to having already been reached out to?) or giving R-friendly responses. I remember one of my WI respondents was a Latino teen who was a bit troll-y but signaled willingness to support Trump.
I think the Mexican/Chicano vote is most important in OR and WA for Congressional races and State Legislature races. Both states are D enough for Latinos not to be able to swing statewide elections outright, although FWIW others in the Leipverse and the pundit community have commented on a dropoff in turnout/D support in OR-6 and the Salem OR area this year. I agree with Carlos Odio in that the Latino vote is strategically more important in perennial swing states.
I do wish Equis and/or the podcast episode could've gone more in detail on the Acela Corridor Puerto Rican vote. It would've been nice to hear more about what happened in Metro NYC, but I guess no one really has comprehensive data on that right now.
