Abstract
The article identifies key groups of Latino voters whose rapidly growing support largely ensured the victory of Donald Trump. The main factors that influenced their choice were economic and immigration issues. In this sense, the elections were a referendum on these issues. Despite political polarization in the United States, 2024 saw a consolidation of the Hispanic electorate. D. Trump played the role of a unifying force. The article outlines the prospects for the development of this trend.
