Ahh. So it's your claim that a working middle class White couple of Hispanic origin and registered voters are different than a working middle class White couple of say German origin who are also registered voters?

And because of this, they are automatic Hillary Clinton voters?

I'm not seeing it. And that points out the nonsense of this entire topic no matter how people try to spin it.

People are going to vote their jobs first and Hillary has nothing there.

Interesting findings:

* Hillary has a huge edge with women (+24%), blacks (+89%), Hispanics (+47%) and college educated (+8%);
* Mr. Trump leads Hillary by +34% among white men;
* Bernie supporters would go 75%-11% for Hillary;
* Voters under 50 overwhelmingly support Hillary by double digits, and they are only 1% apart on people above 65 yo. Trump has a 6% advantage in 50<age<65.
* 90% of Dems would vote for Hillary, and 86% of Republicans for Trump (both surprisingly high);
* Only 6% of Dems would vote for Mr. Trump, and 4% of Republicans would vote for Hillary (both surprisingly low);
* Mr. Trump wins the independents by 3%;

Meh...... 47% of voters are going to support the Angry Old Bat no matter what. Been that way for a number of years - or was until the Dems were shown the door in 2014.

Of course. Most Hispanics in the US are classified as white. But their voting patterns are very different, to say the least.

I don't doubt Hillary has fans but do they love her enough to get up off the couch and vote like they did for Obama?

trump university lawsuit = civil case.

clinton fbi investigation = criminal probe.

FBI investigation of Hillary’s emails is ‘criminal probe’ | New York Post

Please get your apples/oranges straight.

oh, well, it used to be a "security review" to the hilbots until Mr. fbi told them their fairy tale words mean nothing.

Maybe not, but they will vote against Trump. They are lining up to register. More will vote this time than ever before. Trump is truly, beyond belief, hated and feared in the Hispanic communities of the southwest at least. You think these demonstrations in AZ, CA, NM, don't reflect the anger that man has aroused? As for AA's, I have yet to meet one (and I know quite a few because of family connections) who does not think Trump is a racist.

And, if only those 1,561 vote, then looks good for Hillary. This is nothing to get excited about especially when one looks at the big picture.

If you didn't mean to then you wrote something different from what you meant to say. You called the demographic shameful for how they will vote. That's blaming the demographic.

For now. Hypothetically speak, criminal charges can be brought later on; similar to some predatory lending cases. Not holding my breath.

But the point is, even if Trump is indicted for whatever, I'm sure about the same number of people would urge him to continue running.
