“…Researchers have also identified some additional factors that are uniquely associated with Latino registration and turnout. These include ethnic heritage, for example, differences between Cuban Americans, Mexican Americans, and Puerto Ricans (Arvizu and Garcia 1996; Bass and Casper 2001; Calvo and Rosenstone 1989; de la Garza and DeSipio 1997; Garcia 1997a, 1997b; Highton and Burris 2002; Jackson 2003; Stokes 2003), immigration status, notable differences between native‐born and naturalized Latino citizens (Bass and Casper 1998, 2001; DeSipio 1996; Highton and Burris 2002; Shaw, de la Garza, and Lee 2000; Tam Cho 1999), military service (Leal 1999), time living in the United States (Arvizu and Garcia 1996; Bass and Casper 1998, 2001; Highton and Burris 2002), and self‐identity and group consciousness (Leighley 2001; Lien 1994; Masuoka 2008; Schildkraut 2005; Stokes 2003; Uhlaner, Cain, and Kiewiet 1989). Latino voting, in particular, also appears to be affected by social context in that “groups that are concentrated geographically and that have higher levels of interpersonal interaction within the group have higher levels of turnout” (Leighley 2001, 180; see also Barreto, Segura, and Woods 2004; Calvo and Rosenstone 1989; Hritzuk and Park 2000; Uhlaner 1989).…”
