Gary Segura on the Hispanic vote

25 June 2012

In this interview, Centre guest Gary Segura discusses the importance of the Hispanic vote in the 2012 elections and how the increasingly anti-immigration reform Republican party can win them back. He begins by discussing his latest research which shows that racial and religious intolerance can often lead low-income earners to vote against their own economic interests. Professor Segura was in Sydney for the US Studies Centre's Why Leaders Can't Lead conference.
