In the recent light of the presidential election, Arizona's county Maricopa is seeing voting patterns that deviate from patterns in the past.  There has been a large growth of Latino voters in Maricopa county, in part due to anger from presidential candidate Donald Trump and because many Latino citizens in Arizona have turned 18 since the previous presidential election.  A lot of the issue in the past had to do with many eligible Latino voters that were not registered.  However, what seems to be the biggest motivating factor increasing Latino votes is Trump's tough stance on immigration.  Trump targeting immigrants and speaking about building a wall has caused anger and backlash among the Latino community who are now ready to cast their vote against Trump.  This is very interesting in which it shows that a single candidate, not a political party, can influence an entire group of voters to change their ways and make it to the polls.
