URBAN IMMIGRANT HUBS HIJACK THE BALLOT BOX

The state’s political machine just got rocked by a full-blown voter uprising from Rhode Island’s heavily Hispanic urban core!

While political insiders looked the other way, the state’s largest Latino strongholds turned out in numbers that completely flipped the 2022 script. Central Falls—where over 44% of residents are foreign-born and non-citizen totals are among the highest in the state—led the charge with an unprecedented 42% spike in ballots.

Because heavy non-citizen populations shrink the total pool of eligible voters in these enclaves, the voters who did show up wielded massive leverage over the final outcome. Providence and Pawtucket joined the surge, proving that when the Spanish-speaking urban hubs mobilize, they command the state political map!
