“There is overwhelming support for Donald Trump and it is a very clear message for Nikki Haley,” Jesús Márquez, a Republican political analyst, told Noticias Telemundo.

In 2020, Trump posted gains in Nevada's top five Latino precincts.

Today the economy is the main motive for many Latinos who choose to vote for the former president.

"You have to go for the best option that suits, especially economic interests," Cristina Blázquez, a voter from Nevada, told Noticias Telemundo.

"On the one hand, Latinos are anti-Trump on the issue of immigration," explained political analyst Rafael Hernández Castro, "but Latinos can be pro-Trump on the issue of the economy."

These meetings take place from 8:00 pm ET to 10:30 pm, in more than 1,500 venues in 16 counties.

There are 26 delegates at stake, and Trump must receive them all, since he is running unopposed.

The Virgin Islands also held their caucuses on Thursday, in which Trump was declared the winner just after 7:00 pm ET.
