With so many turning voting age, young Latinos are a coveted target for the ample field of Democrats eyeing the White House.. In 2016, California's primary was held June 7. In 2020, the primary is scheduled for March 3, and early ballots can be mailed in as early as Feb. 3.
“It’s very important he’s here — when people like this come and speak to the classes, it’s making an impression. When it comes to the ballot and you see someone’s name you are familiar with, it makes a difference,” Aguilar-Rosil said. Sanders ended up winning overwhelmingly with Latinos under 35 in 2016. Older Latinos lined up behind Clinton, who ultimately won California.Aguilar-Rosil wasn’t old enough to vote in the Democratic primary in 2016, but said she backed Sanders and would have voted for him. She voted for Clinton in the general election because she had turned 18 by then. Though she has not settled on backing Castro, she said his candidacy deserved consideration.
At UCLA, Castro fielded several queries on immigration and about the Trump administration's policy of separating children and parents at the border. He was asked about how the country can enroll more children into Pre-K, how the North American Free Trade Agreement impacts Central America-fed immigration to the United States, his plans for bringing fairness in criminal justice, his view on legalizing marijuana, and about tax breaks for corporations, among other topics.
