Political commentator Shane Te Pou says that as the US election approaches, Latino voters are increasingly supporting Kamala Harris and the Democrats.
Recently, comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, performing at a rally for Republican candidate Donald Trump at Madison Square Garden, made a joke referring to Puerto Rico as “an island of garbage in the middle of the ocean.”
Te Pou, who is currently in the United States, says in Pennsylvania, the joke did not sit well with Puerto Ricans living there.
“400,000 Puerto Ricans live in Pennsylvania. I interviewed a guy that I met randomly on the street. His name is Brad from Florida, and he said that it is absolutely significant, particularly amongst the older generational Puerto Ricans, and they are the folks that get out and vote,” says Te Pou.
