Prominent Latinx organization ConMijente endorses BernieSanders:
this week. This is the group’s first presidential endorsement since its founding. Mijente acts to mobilize Latinx voters, so this could be a major boon for current frontrunner Sanders.
Mijente will utilize their 300,000+-person email list to assist Sanders with the Nevada caucuses on Feb. 22. Nevada has the fifth-highest Latinx population in the United States, meaning this endorsement could seal the deal for Sanders. Just ahead of the Nevada caucuses is the Nevada democratic debate, airing Wednesday, Feb. 19. Just today , we received confirmation that six candidates qualified for the debate, including former NYC mayor Michael Bloomberg, thanks toin the rules.
Mijente’s president and founder Marisa Franco said their endorsement decision came after much deliberation and sit-downs with several of the potential candidates. When the list was whittled down to Sanders and Warren, 70% swayed to the Vermont senator’s side., “And what that means in our community is giving people your ‘word.’”
Mijente’s track record is not one to scoff at. In 2016, the group assisted with the ousting of former corrupt Arizona sheriff Joe Arpaio, and in 2018 assisted with a near-doubling of Latinx voter turnout in Georgia’s governor race compared to 2014.
