KANSAS CITY, Missouri (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – A spokesperson for the National Council of La Raza, the biggest Latino advocacy group in the United States, says that the organization invited every current Republican and Democratic presidential candidate to their annual convention taking place in Kansas City, Mo., but only the Democrats agreed to come.

That means that none of the GOP candidates,  not even Latino candidates Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio, will attend.

The Adobo Chronicles® spoke with all declared Republican candidates, exempt Trump, and they were one in saying that they have all but conceded the Latino vote to The Donald.

Despite his disparaging remarks about Mexicans (calling them “racists, drug addicts and criminals”), Trump, who leads in some new polls among the GOP presidential candidates, recently said that he will win the Latino vote.
