of the underway invasion of the United States

Significant growth in the number of Latino eligible voters has helped make the U.S. electorate more racially and ethnically diverse than ever this year. According to Pew Research Center projections, a record 27.3 million Latinos are eligible to cast ballots, representing 12% of all eligible voters.
Since 2012, the number of Hispanic eligible voters has increased by 4 million, accounting for 37% of the growth in all eligible voters during that span. The Hispanic share of eligible voters in several key battleground states has also gone up.
Latinos have favored the Democratic Party over the Republican Party in every presidential election since at least the 1980s, but their electoral impact has long been limited by low voter turnout and a population concentrated in non-battleground states. Despite large growth in the number of eligible Latino voters, it remains to be seen whether their turnout will set a record in November.
 
To be accurate, the above isn't the 'first' effects...
We've already seen the strain on some parts the economy, jobs, healthcare, schools, debt, etc...

above is the political effects...

This is really quite telling. These are American citizens, with a right to vote that they earned.

Not sure why anyone would have an issue w/ that.

Telling ? wth are you talking about.....If they are voting, I assume they are citizens and have a right to..did I really have to be specific about that ?

What makes you think anyone has an issue with it ?...No one said any such thing.

Its one of the results of the invasion of immigrants from the south....they are now here in numbers that have become a political force....
and obviously a cultural force....and both will change the face of the United States....thats just a logical conclusion of the facts....
They have been a strain on parts of the economy and an asset to other parts of the economy, particularly farming....I'm not taking "issue" with that, I'm stating a simple fact.


You have an annoying habit of extrapolating simple statements and observations to intentionally mis characterizing someone posts....

Yet you saw fit to call those voters an "invasion", and that word has negative connotations.

If they are eligible to vote then they're U.S. citizens, and if they're U.S. citizens they're legal, so I'd call them "voters."
