A Hispanic radio host told MSNBC that Latino males rejected Kamala Harris for president because “A woman belongs in the kitchen.”
Victor Martinez, the owner of a Hispanic radio station in Pennsylvania, said Latino men who called his radio show didn’t want a woman president.
Martinez said the macho male mentality is part of the Latino culture. Men are the providers while women stay home and raise the children.
“The man, he’s the one, the provider. And we’re the boss, and we still, unfortunately, have a lot of Latinos with that mentality where the woman belongs in the kitchen,” Martinez told MSNBC anchor Nicolle Wallace.
Surveys showed a dramatic shift among Hispanic males who voted for Joe Biden in 2020. 45% of Latinos voted for Donald Trump, whereas just 29% voted for him in 2016.
This election year saw a significant rise in the Latino electorate due to mass migration into the U.S.
However, Hispanic men in Pennsylvania said the economy was the key reason they switched from Democrats to Donald Trump.
They said the price of groceries was a deciding factor.
“Prices went up, food went up, everything went up,” Philadelphia resident Miguel Garcia told CBS News.
