'We're extremely offended': PA exit poll of key constituency spells bad news for Trump

Raw Story  

Former President Donald Trump's Madison Square Garden rally insulting Puerto Rico as a "floating island of garbage" may well prove to be a fatal blow to his campaign, as Puerto Rican voters in one of the most important battleground states are now fired up to turn out against him. According to Sabrina Rodriguez of The Washington Post, during a rally in Allentown in the final hours before Election Day, Mayor Matt Tuerk referenced the "island of garbage" line and proclaimed, "Puerto Rico se respeta." According to reporter Adrian Carrasquillo, an exit poll focused on early voters suggests that since the Madison Square Garden rally, Latino voters have shifted toward Harris by 9 points. "I’m told @NuestroPAC is texting 87,000 Puerto Ricans who still haven't voted yet a last minute text TODAY."
