enormous sway that Latinos are projected to carry over the outcome of the 2016 election.

According to the Center for American Progress, Latinos will account for 13% of all eligible voters, with higher percentages in swing states like Nevada, Florida, and Colorado.

Latino voters overwhelmingly supported President Barack Obama's 2012 bid, voting for him over Republican nominee Mitt Romney by a 71-27 margin. The voting bloc helped carry him to victory in several key states.

Republicans — who have increasingly found themselves in a heated debate over immigration reform — face an even steeper challenge in 2016. The Center for American Progress says that the eventual candidate needs to win 47% of Latinos' support to win the general election, higher than even former President George W. Bush's 44% level in 2004.

And though immigration remains the most important issue to Latino voters, the Clinton campaign hopes that her positions on a wide range of national issues will resonate with Latinas, as well.
