 Latinx has been introduced in recent years by academics as a way to describe Hispanic voters without using the feminine Latina or the masculine Latino. The national poll was taken between November 17th and November 21st and found that the effort to implement Latinx is turning off Hispanics, according to Politico. Only 2% of those polled referred to themselves as Latinx, while 68% called themselves Hispanic and 21% favored Latino or Latina to describe their ethnic background.
