As Iowa and New Hampshire voters boost Pete Buttigieg’s presidential hopes, Latinos in Nevada and California are asking: Pete who?
LAS VEGAS —
During a recent campaign swing through California and Nevada, Buttigieg gave a similar answer to questions he’s faced about his lack of black voter support: “We’re not even known to a lot of voters” and “I’m looking forward to sharing our story.” “He’s definitely lagged behind the rest” of the top candidates on Latino outreach, said Annette Magnus, executive director of Battleborn Nevada, a progressive group in the state. “If we’re considering Mayor Pete in the top four right now, I don’t know that that translates here.
Asked about the lack of engagement with the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, Schmuhl said, “It is on the list and we will get it done.” He said the campaign is reaching out to CHC members individually. Astrid Silva, a prominent Democratic activist in Nevada, said Buttigieg reached out to her personally for the first time last week to ask her how she felt after flying to Washington to attend the Supreme Court’s oral arguments in the Trump administration’s appeal to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.
“I consider him very intelligent, very caring," Romero said, so "I’m even more surprised that he has yet to reach out to us.”
