Tip: if running a statewide campaign, 15% of your media budget should be focused on Hispanic media outlets. We are 15% or more of the vote. Remember to not only invest in TV, but also print and radio. Do not forget about our local community papers in Spanish–they are the gatekeepers to the Hispanic community. I also mention some other things to keep in mind for the upcoming election season.
Keep the discussion going. Hispanics will some day become more frequent and involved voters. It’s just a matter of time until they discover what true impact they can have on their own lives and the future of this nation.
