Latino Victory’s Executive Director Sindy Benavides on building and protecting a more representative government

This week’s interview features a conversation with the one, the only, the amazing Executive Director of Latino Victory, Sindy Benavides. Our conversation looks at the work Latino Victory has done to increase Latino representation throughout elected offices across the country – from the strategies to the goals ahead in 2024. Naturally, the current status quo is discussed, and where the many areas for growth exist of enhancing representation, protecting representation, and enhancing voter engagement amongst this nuanced demographic. Speaking of nuance, we talk about the monolith myth and how pollsters get this varied and growing group oh so very wrong. For those listening that are considering a run for office, this episode is made for you – and that person in your life that you’ve asked several times to run for office, or to at least consider it. Latino Victory: https://latinovictory.org/HelloFresh | Code: girlandthegov16 for 16 free meals#VIRAL by Girl and the Gov®: https://www.girlandthegov.com/newsletterThe Gov Hub Newsletter: https://www.girlandthegov.com/The Gov Club: https://bit.ly/41bVbHjFollow us on social media:Instagram: @girlandthegov and @girlandthegovthepodcastTikTok: @girlandthegovYouTube: @girlandthegovLinkedIn: @girlandthegov and @girlandthegovthepodcastLemon8: @girlandthegovLIKE THE POD?
