Univision anchor Jorge Ramos asks Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump a question about his immigration proposal during a news conference in Dubuque, Iowa.

When Donald Trump kicked Univision anchor Jorge Ramos out of a press conference last week in Iowa, polls showed that Trump was lacking support among "Hispanic voters." 

What exactly does it mean to be a Hispanic voter, considering the vast differences between the groups that make up the Hispanic voter demographic?

"Navigating those differences is one of the challenges for candidates," said Scott Clement, poll analyst of the Washington Post. "The first couple of months of Trump’s campaign have really gained criticism among Hispanics for Trump. But that hasn’t spread to the rest of the GOP field.”

Watch the video of Univision anchor Jorge Ramos being escorted out of a Donald Trump press conference below:

Are you a Hispanic voter? Which presidential candidate would you like to hear from and what Florida issues would you want him/her to address? 

The candidate with the top votes will be invited for an interview on WLRN 91.3 FM's The Sunshine Economy.
