Hispanics of all ages in the U.S. today are more than twice as likely to identify with or lean to the Democratic Party rather than the Republican Party.

These patterns highlight the challenges the Republican Party faces in the years ahead as the Hispanic percentage of the potential electorate expands. [cont.]
