  • Election 2016 Races to Watch the Power of Latino Candidates Executive Summary
    ELECTION 2016 RACES TO WATCH THE POWER OF LATINO CANDIDATES EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In Election 2016, Latinos will continue their progress as leaders of their communities by seeking positions in Congress, statewide offices, and state legislatures across the nation. Latino candidates are demonstrating that they can successfully pursue seats in the executive and legislative branches of government throughout the country, where some of the most important decisions are made about the policies that affect the lives of all Americans. Additionally, Latinos are achieving new milestones in their efforts to attain full representation at the federal and state level. This Election Profile focuses on key federal and state races involving Latino candidates in the general election on November 8, 2016. Latinos are running for top offices in 38 states. The geographic diversity of Latino candidates demonstrates that Latinos are mobilizing for political progress in both the traditional Latino population centers, and in regions with emerging Latino communities such as the Plains States, the Midwest, the Deep South, and New England. Latinos in the U.S. Senate: The number of Latinos in the U.S. Senate could increase from three to five, if all competitive contenders win their bids (incumbent U.S. Senators Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Robert Menendez (D-NJ) are not up for re-election in 2016). With the partisan balance of power in the U.S. Senate at stake, two of the races are considered particularly crucial for both political parties. In Florida, incumbent U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R) faces a challenge from U.S. Rep. Patrick Murphy (D).

  • Breakaway Democrats in New York Senate Add Another to Their Ranks
    Breakaway Democrats in New York Senate Add Another to Their Ranks ... https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/25/nyregion/independent-democratic... https://nyti.ms/2ktIiHO N.Y. / REGION Breakaway Democrats in New York Senate Add Another to Their Ranks By JESSE McKINLEY JAN. 25, 2017 ALBANY — The Independent Democratic Conference, whose collaboration with Republicans in the State Senate has allowed that party to control the chamber despite being outnumbered by Democrats, added an eighth member on Wednesday. By recruiting Senator Jose R. Peralta of Queens this week, and two other members in the fall, the conference has evolved from a breakaway group of Democrats into a full-fledged independent faction in the State Senate and the fulcrum of a four-year-old coalition. The 63-seat Senate now comprises 31 Republicans and 32 Democrats. In addition to the eight Democrats who now belong to the breakway conference, another, Simcha Felder of Brooklyn, caucuses with the Republicans. That leaves the traditional Senate Democratic Conference with just 23 members. Mr. Peralta’s defection does more than siphon power from the Democratic conference; it puts the independent group in position to expand its sphere of influence, pulling Republicans toward the political middle and offering John J. Flanagan, the Senate’s Republican leader, an unbreachable bulwark against liberal policies favored by the Democrats who dominate the State Assembly. 1 of 5 1/27/2017 4:46 PM Breakaway Democrats in New York Senate Add Another to Their Ranks ... https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/25/nyregion/independent-democratic... Mr. Peralta, whose victory in 2010 made him the first Dominican-American to be elected to the State Senate, said in a statement released by the conference on Wednesday that “today’s political climate demands that progressive legislators take bold action to deliver for their constituents,” adding that he wanted results on issues like affordable housing, homelessness and school funding.
