The Citizen Conversation with … Sergio Bendixen

Bendixen has been a leading expert in the field of Hispanic polling for more than 20 years, having served as the chief pollster for each of the four major Spanish-language television stations, including Univision and Telemundo. Though Bendixen wasn’t able to share any secrets about internal poll numbers or strategy, he took a few minutes to talk to the Citizen and shed some light on the voting patterns and behaviors of Hispanic voters in Texas and across the country.
