   MSNBC’s Joy Reid and The Atlantic’s Jemele Hill attacked reports   
   highlighting Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ Hispanic support by claiming   
   that it’s related to racism.   
      
   NBC News reported Friday that Florida Democrats were growing concerned   
   over the Republican politician’s popularity among Latino voters ahead   
   of the midterm elections. In fact, some suggested that DeSantis’   
   standing with Hispanics could propel him to be the first Republican   
   governor to win Miami-Dade County since Jeb Bush in 2002.   
      
   "[Mi Vecino co-founders Alex] Berrios and [Devon] Murphy Anderson said   
   they have held over 2,000 conversations with Hispanic voters in   
   Miami-Dade. Aside from high enthusiasm for DeSantis among Republicans,   
   about 29% of those with no party affiliation and 25% of Democrats said   
   they were voting for DeSantis," Carmen Sesin wrote.   
      
   Although this report emphasized DeSantis "outperforming" with Latino   
   voters, Reid and Hill instead insisted that this shift in politics was   
   due to racism.
