A majority of Latino voters now support abortion rights, according to polls, a reversal from two decades ago. Polling trends, interviews with strategists and election results in Ohio and Virginia suggest Democrats' optimism regarding Latinas could bear out.
As of April 2023, according to the Pew Research Center, 62 percent of Latinos believed abortion should be legal in all or most cases, marking a significant shift from 20 years earlier when most Hispanics opposed abortion rights.
Since the Supreme Court struck down Roe v. Wade in 2022, Republican-dominated states have been implementing stringent curbs on abortion, like Arizona's two-year-old law prohibiting the procedure after 15 weeks with no exceptions for rape or incest.
