Communities from Southwest Detroit to Oakland County, Grand Rapids and Saginaw are full of Latino voters also making up their minds about voting. 

And it’s crazy because while one of the presidential candidates has been talking nonstop about one narrow slice of the Latino population… there’s a lot we’re not talking about with this community’s issues and interests. 

GUEST:
Cindy Gamboa is the executive director of MI PODER…. a non-profit non-partisan social welfare and civic engagement organization serving Michigan’s Latinx population
