Submit ReviewEvery election year Americans get chopped into pieces and clumped into voting blocks -Black voters, college educated voters, soccer moms and Nascar dads to name a few. There seems to be some truth to voting blocks; we are likely to share the share the same concerns as others who look like you, speak the same language, live near you and are in the same socioeconomic group.

Morin said what's important to Latinos varies across the nation, depending on where they live.
