For the 2020 election cycle specifically, <span class=\"xn-person\">Voto Latino<\/span> has surpassed its 500,000-goal, registering more than 558,000 voters to-date across the country. This voter registration number is expected to increase daily by the thousands in critical states leading up to Election Day on <span class=\"xn-chron\">Tuesday, November 3<\/span>, and is more than double the organization&#8217;s results from the previous election cycle in 2018. Notably, <span class=\"xn-person\">Voto Latino<\/span> has registered 257,294 in <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> alone, more than <span class=\"xn-person\">Voto Latino&#8217;s<\/span> nationwide registration total in 2018. Remarkably, this milestone was accomplished during COVID-19, thanks to <span class=\"xn-person\">Voto Latino&#8217;s<\/span> digital-first infrastructure and use of innovative technology-based tools.<\/p>\n<div id=\"prni_dvprnejpgceaaleft\" style=\"WIDTH: 100%; TEXT-ALIGN: left\" dir=\"ltr\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"prnejpgceaaleft\" title=\"(PRNewsfoto\/Voto Latino)\" border=\"0\" alt=\"(PRNewsfoto\/Voto Latino)\" align=\"middle\" imagelabel=\"General\" src=\"https:\/\/mma.prnewswire.com\/media\/1278486\/Voto_Latino_Logo.jpg \"\/><\/div>\n<p>&#8220;Our results reflect the Latinx community&#8217;s deep desire to participate in this election,&#8221; said Mar\u00eda <span class=\"xn-person\">Teresa Kumar<\/span>, President and CEO of <span class=\"xn-person\">Voto Latino<\/span>. &#8220;For too long, our community has been ignored by the political establishment. Two years ago, <span class=\"xn-person\">Voto Latino<\/span> made a big bet: invest in our infrastructure and start efforts early to meet the moment. This year, for the first time, Latinxs will be the second-largest voting bloc in the country and we were ready. We will mobilize 3.7 million to flex their muscle this November.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In addition, <span class=\"xn-person\">Voto Latino<\/span> has raised <span class=\"xn-money\">$35 million<\/span>, more than double its original goal for the 2020 election cycle, with a new goal of raising <span class=\"xn-money\">$37 million<\/span> by Election Day. As a result, the organization has been able to step in and fill the gaps in voter registration left in traditional on-site programs, and is positioned to mobilize upwards of 3.7 million new and low propensity Latinx voters in six battleground states, including <span class=\"xn-location\">Arizona<\/span> (<span class=\"xn-money\">400K<\/span>), <span class=\"xn-location\">Florida<\/span> (<span class=\"xn-money\">1M<\/span>), <span class=\"xn-location\">Nevada<\/span> (<span class=\"xn-money\">175K<\/span>), <span class=\"xn-location\">North Carolina<\/span> (<span class=\"xn-money\">175K<\/span>), <span class=\"xn-location\">Pennsylvania<\/span> (<span class=\"xn-money\">150K<\/span>), and <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> (<span class=\"xn-money\">1.8M<\/span>). The organization will now undertake get-out-the-vote efforts and advocacy work to ensure that this election is free and fair as the country heads into the final stretch of election season.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"xn-person\">Voto Latino<\/span> is a grassroots political organization focused on educating and empowering a new generation of Latinx voters, as well as creating a more robust and inclusive democracy. Through innovative digital campaigns, culturally relevant programs and authentic voices, we shepherd the Latinx community towards the full realization of its political power.<\/p>\n<p><b>Contact:<br \/><\/b><span class=\"xn-person\">Danny Turkel<\/span>, <u><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"mailto:danny@votolatino.org\" rel=\"nofollow\">danny@votolatino.org<\/a><\/u> <br \/><span class=\"xn-person\">Amber Arnold<\/span>, <u><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"mailto:aarnold@mww.com\" rel=\"nofollow\">aarnold@mww.com<\/a><\/u> <\/p>\n<p>Logo &#8211; <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=2947008-1&amp;h=2095871376&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fmma.prnewswire.com%2Fmedia%2F1278486%2FVoto_Latino_Logo.jpg&amp;a=https%3A%2F%2Fmma.prnewswire.com%2Fmedia%2F1278486%2FVoto_Latino_Logo.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/mma.prnewswire.com\/media\/1278486\/Voto_Latino_Logo.jpg<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>SOURCE  <span class=\"xn-person\">Voto Latino<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p> <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"xn-content\">\n<p><span class=\"xn-location\">WASHINGTON<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-chron\">Oct. 12, 2020<\/span> \/PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE\/ &#8212;\u00a0Today, <span class=\"xn-person\">Voto Latino<\/span>, the nation&#8217;s largest Latinx voter registration organization, announced that it has officially registered 1,057,090 Latinx voters to-date, the most ever in history.
