Anna Paulina Luna predicts Trump’s ‘surging’ Hispanic vote will boost Republicans – Washington Examiner

Representative Anna ‌Paulina ‍Luna (R-FL) predicts that‌ former President Donald Trump’s increasing support among ‍Hispanic ‌voters will significantly benefit‌ the Republican Party‌ in the upcoming elections. In an interview on Fox News, Luna‍ highlighted Trump’s ⁣efforts to engage Hispanic​ voters in battleground states like Arizona and Nevada, particularly⁣ emphasizing his focus on border⁢ security. ⁢She believes that ⁢this growing‍ support ⁢will⁣ positively impact Republican candidates ⁣down the ballot, potentially leading to a sweep of the House, Senate, and⁤ presidency.

Luna acknowledges that while expanding their majority ⁣in the House and recapturing the Senate will be challenging due to competition in predominantly Democratic areas, ​she⁤ is confident that a clear messaging strategy will help‍ attract independent voters. As she campaigns for reelection against Democrat Whitney Fox, Luna expressed ⁢confidence in her lead according​ to internal polls, while also noting an‍ incident ⁣where her campaign manager was assaulted by a supporter of her opponent. This has‍ prompted her campaign to ⁤prioritize ‍safety in the lead-up to Election Day.


Anna Paulina Luna predicts Trump’s ‘surging’ Hispanic vote will boost Republicans

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) suggested Hispanic voters supporting former President Donald Trump would help Republicans down the ballot on Tuesday, which she contended could see the party win both the legislative and executive branches.

Luna assessed how the former president is “surging” with many low-propensity voters ahead of the election, including Hispanic voters across battleground states like Arizona and Nevada. The former president has made a concerted effort to appeal to this voting bloc ahead of Election Day, highlighting his pitch for a secure southern border during an event with Hispanic voters last month.

“And so I think when you’re talking about the national demographics that are coming home for the GOP, that’s going to affect everyone, not just the presidential, but down ballot,” Luna said on Fox News’s Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo, which aired on Fox Business on Sunday. “I think that we’re in luck; we’re going to have a juggernaut meeting, we’ll have the House, the Senate, and the White House, and if that happens, Maria, it’s going to be a great day for America the next day.”

When asked about the Republican Party’s bid to expand its majority in the House of Representatives while retaking the Senate, Luna contended doing so would be “tight” due to how many races in “blue areas” are “dominated by legacy media.” However, she believed that if her colleagues “stay to messaging,” the party should be able to win over independent voters in this election.

Luna is seeking reelection against her Democratic challenger Whitney Fox this Tuesday, in which the Republican congresswoman said her internal polls have her “leading.” She also revealed her campaign manager was assaulted on Saturday by one of her opponent’s supporters, and as such, her campaign is not taking any “unnecessary risks” ahead of Election Day.  

“And so what we’re finding right now is because of the polarized media, largely due to the rhetoric that Kamala Harris and Whitney Fox have been putting out, people are getting hurt,” Luna said.

Last month, Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) suggested that Democrats are “losing their minds” over minority voters choosing to support Trump over Vice President Kamala Harris right before the election. He argued Republicans have made “record gains” with black and Hispanic voters, as these voters want a president “who can handle the global stage without falling asleep.”

To shore up her support among Hispanic voters, Harris visited Arizona, a border state, on Thursday, claiming her opponent “insults Latinos” and “scapegoats immigrants.” She also argued Trump’s closing argument is “full of hate and division.”
