From the Washington Examiner: Washington Examiner senior writer Joe Concha predicted that “midterms will look better” for the Republican Party with growing support from Hispanic voters aligned with President Donald Trump.
Concha appeared on Fox Business’s Kudlow on Tuesday amid protests against Border Patrol and Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
“In terms of what Trump is doing with ICE, in terms of deportations, look at these numbers here from, for instance, Emerson: he’s now at 44% approval among Hispanics, that’s up 15 points in the last month, despite all the negative press,” Concha said. “The trends, at least as far as Hispanics, are going solidly towards Trump, and if this holds, with the economy taking off the way it is, midterms are going to look a lot better than some people say it will.”

The matter is still up for debate, as different polls are showing different results.
This is an Emerson College poll, and they are supposed to be pretty unbiased.
I’ll say its statistical noise. Their 1,000 person sample had 109 Hispanics. That implies a standard deviation of 5%, or a +/- of 10%. Wide range. (DO check!)
