Former President Trump’s favorability is rising among Latinos while President Biden’s has fallen, according to a poll released Tuesday.

The Axios/Ipsos survey shows Biden’s favorability among Latinos has fallen 6 points since last summer — 47 percent in June 2023 to 41 percent last month. Trump’s favorability among Latinos in the same time period rose from 29 percent to 32 percent.

The poll also measured the favorability of other important American political figures including Vice President Harris and former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, who dropped out of the GOP presidential race last month. Harris’s favorability among Latinos fell from 42 percent to 39 percent, while Haley’s rose from 18 percent to 25 percent, per the poll.

Biden’s reelection campaign recently released an ad focused on Latinos, taking aim at Trump for previous controversial comments about immigrants, including those in which he said they were “poisoning the blood” of America.

“This election is an election between me, and a guy named Trump. This is a guy who calls Latinos criminals, drug dealers and rapists,” Biden said in the ad, which also included remarks from the current president during a rally in Arizona. “Now he says immigrants are poisoning the blood of our country.”

“What the hell is he talking about?” the president continued in the ad. “The reason we’re as good as we are is because we are the most diverse country in the world.”

The Axios-Ipsos poll results also show a slight drop in Latinos saying it is a “good” time “to be a Latino or Hispanic person” in the U.S., dropping from 56 percent in June to 55 percent in March.

Respondents in the survey also said they were most worried about inflation (35 percent), crime and violence (34 percent) and immigration (28 percent) ahead of the November election.

Latinos were also more likely to say Democrats represent them more than Republicans — 36 percent to 32 percent, respectively. When looking at Biden’s handling of the issues specifically, respondents expressed less confidence, per the survey.

The Axios/Ipsos poll was conducted with Noticias Telemundo from March 22-24, with a sample of 1,012 Latino/Hispanic adults. The margin of error is plus or minus 3.6 percentage points.
