Hello, everyone. Tales from the the road we are hearing so much from the road glad that you're here welcome to lemon landed five we have a great show planned for you again we are from the road so let's see how good the service is going to be but this is unusual we know it but uh we are getting some really good stuff as i hope you guys have been tuned into our social media uh because it's great great great stuff there that we are getting so make sure you hit the like and subscribe uh and tune in your questions and your comments will be up on the screen of course We're so happy that you're here helping us to build this community and really learning from the stuff that we hear here that we stream here on elimination.
So our. thumbnail said Latinos for who are Latinos for mainly this time what is going on with Latinos every single demographic counts this election will be won on the margins and so with that said let me tell you what we have as we are heading on our fourth day of our tour across the states we are at the Georgia I'm sorry we're at the North Carolina Virginia border very close we're about to cross over into Virginia so let me just say this Breaking news that I gave you this morning appears to be correct. So much to discuss. Beyonce reportedly, and at least NPR is confirming, they say that Beyonce is going to join the Kamala Harris votes on the stump down in Texas and to try to get her to win over and Democrats in that state, perhaps the Senate race and also the presidential race, of course.
And then we want to talk about Donald Trump's opportunity to win over a historic percentage of black and brown voters. Remember, he's going to win over a bigger percentage of black male voters. That is what the polls are showing, showing than previous than in previous times. And also. maybe it's going to win over more Latinos historically than historically. Okay. So fortunately I have a perfect guest, a really passionate guest. Someone I love having on the show. I love talking to Maria Teresa Kumar is a president and CEO of Voto Latino and a regular voice on MSNBC. And I'm so glad that she is here. Um, listen, we're hearing so much out on the road. Uh, and it's always great. As you know, Teresa to Maria to, um,
Just go straight to the folks and talk to them. You learn a lot. How are you doing? And tell me what's on your mind.
Well, first of all, thanks for having me. I love the fact that you're taking this from the road because I just came back from the road. I was door knocking in Nevada over the weekend. And really a lot of the stuff that we're seeing now is what we were experiencing at the doors. And so I think that you're absolutely right, Don. And by the way, thank you for having me on. I think it's the first time, but it's fun to see you where you are. It's fun.
Yeah.
Thank you. I'm loving where I am and I'm loving this. This is unusual, but you know what? We're in unusual times and I think you have to do things like this because I just don't want to sit in a studio at an anchor desk and just parrot things that pundits and boats are saying to me. And what you have been reporting and you're talking about, I'm actually seeing and hearing it firsthand out here on the road. So again, much appreciation to you. Where do we start? What do you think? Just first off, in general, is Donald Trump going to get a larger percentage of the Latino vote than historically has been the case?
I think you're muted. Can you hear me?
Now I can hear you.
Yes, go ahead. So I think one of the things that we're going to see from Donald Trump is you're going to see they have done very smartly taken from the playbook of the Democratic progressive side and has encouraged everybody to vote early. And as one of the reasons that we see as a result, can you hear me?
Yeah, I can hear you.
So one of the things we're seeing is that we're seeing a lot of early returns of Republican voters, and that includes a lot of Latino early vote Republican voters. I would hold I would encourage folks not to see that as an indicator of future votes, because one of the things that we do know in the Latino community is that they have a tendency of waiting until November 5th.
