I'm not in the NE, and obviously you are far from convinced a Dem will win the WH in Nov or you'd take that bet. Hispanics, dear boy, are a far more complicated subject than you think. But, living in the NE, I'm not surprised you think you know something about them but don't. You have the lowest proportion of them. census.gov In fact, the state I am in has twice as many as the entire NE. A bit more complicated than you think. Initial poverty draws them to the Democrats. But as they become more prosperous (and yes, they do), they move to the right because of the conservative values in their culture. The Dems in CA were planning on an explosion of Hispanics coming across the southern border to save them. You can see how well that worked in our last unscheduled gubernatorial election. Obviously you need a sop to your waning confidence. I can understand why it's waning. $100 on Bush.
