Joe Biden's intentional border crisis will take center stage in the 2024 election. This issue is driving voters into Trump's arms.
In New York, Trump is outperforming Biden among Latino voters, largely because of the invasion taking place at the southern border.
Latino voters are typically seen as part of the Democratic coalition and this is a blue state.

Trump leads Biden among Latinos in New York as migrant crisis intensifies: Poll
President Biden's popularity has fallen so sharply in New York that he is trailing former President Donald Trump among Latino voters amid the ongoing immigrant crisis — although the Empire State will still vote blue in a 2024 matchup between the two, according to a new poll.
Trump leads Biden 42% to 39% among Hispanic voters, with the rest undecided, according to a Siena College poll released Monday.
Last November, the incumbent Democrat led his predecessor by 27 points in the traditionally left-leaning demographic.
“I think it's very worrying [for Biden]said Steven Greenberg, a pollster at Siena College. “It fits with what we're seeing nationally.”
Biden (81 years old) beat Trump (77 years old) by 23 percentage points in New York in 2020. But this time, the president leads Trump by only nine points, 46% to 37%, which tracks Biden lagging behind the 45th president in the areas Another battle. States.
When independent candidates Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Cornel West are included, Biden and Trump's vote share drops to 41% and 32%, respectively.
Republicans should not rule out New York in November. The state seems to be playing its role.
This is so wild that I can't believe it. Trump leads Biden among Latinos in New York by 42% to 39%. But the crazier Trump, who lost New York to Biden by 23 points, fell only 9 points in New York by 46% to 37%. Crazy https://t.co/9AMSNNFVKH

A Trump win in New York would be huge and a huge embarrassment for Democrats. Could it happen?
