78% want Democrats to control Congress, per a September New York Times/Siena poll.

Maria Elvira Salazar (Rep-R Florida) and Monica De La Cruz (R-Texas) each released ads breaking with the deportation campaign. Salazar said it has "gone too far" and that the administration "betrayed" Hispanic voters. Trump won both districts in 2024, by 14 and 18 points.
