Gallego Eyes 2028 Run, Prioritizes Latino Vote

0:00On April 5th, Arizona Senator Rubin Gallego is eyeing a run for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2028. The first term Democrat flipped the swing state seat last year, even as Donald Trump took Arizona. Gallego says any candidate needs family buy-in before jumping in, especially with his young kids at home. He points to the Latino vote as the key Democrats lost in 2024. Kamala Harris only got 51% there, down from Joe Biden's 65% in 2020. Gallego calls 62% the must-hit mark to win big, like Passing Go in Monopoly. Gallego stresses investing in Latinos as the future workforce and market. Working class Latinos, he talks to. One real immigration fixes, not dreams of no enforcement at all. On immigration and customs enforcement, he bucks some party lines by opposing abolition. Instead, he pushes reforms to right size it, deport bad actors, and curb abuses while keeping border secure.
