Según Equis Research, una organización latina dedicada a la realización de encuestas, el 26 por ciento de los votantes latinos que votaron por Trump el año pasado han dicho que están decepcionados con su desempeño o se arrepienten de haber votado por él.

Las opiniones de los latinos sobre el tema de migración, la situación económica y cómo va el trabajo del presidente Donald Trump ya están generando titulares.

A mediados de agosto, por ejemplo, una encuesta de Reuters mostró que el apoyo a Trump entre los votantes hispanos es solo del 32 por ciento: el nivel más bajo de este año.

Este bajo ranking también se ve en una encuesta de YouGov/Economist, en la que solo el 28 por ciento de los encuestados latinos dijeron que aprobaban el desempeño del presidente, mientras el 68 por ciento lo desaprobaba.

Si bien la economía es lo que más importa a los votantes latinos, también hay que decir que a los latinos les preocupa varias de las decisiones que ha tomado Trump sobre inmigración y su afán de aumentar las deportaciones.

Según Equis Research, una organización latina dedicada a la realización de encuestas, el 26 por ciento de los votantes latinos que votaron por Trump el año pasado han dicho que están decepcionados con su desempeño o se arrepienten de haber votado por él. 

En comparación con el año pasado, solo el 8 por ciento se arrepentía completamente de haber votado por Trump, mientras que el 19 por ciento se mostraba decepcionado con el presidente.

Muchos de quienes se expresaron arrepentidos señalan que entre los principales motivos de disgusto están el énfasis desbordado en deportar a mucha gente y su falta de acción en materia económica.

Los resultados de la encuesta citan a un votante en español diciendo: “Mucho escándalo, poco progreso”.

Similar a lo que encontró el Pew Research Center en junio de este año, hay políticas migratorias que generan rechazo no solo entre los votantes estadounidenses, sino entre latinos. Según Equis Research, el 77 por ciento de los votantes latinos rechaza las redadas a inmigrantes en los lugares de trabajo. 

Así que para hablar sobre los resultados de las encuestas sobre el desempeño del presidente, invitamos a María Isabel Di Franco Quiñonez, directora de investigación de la organización.

Jessica Mallow Gulley is the next president and managing director of the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra, the orchestra announced Tuesday.

Mallow Gulley will start her new position on Oct. 13. She replaces Jon Limbacher, who announced his retirement at the end of 2024. Limbacher will remain as an advisor to the orchestra through December.

“I am truly honored and excited to join the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra and to help shape its next era,” Mallow Gulley said in a news release. “Together with the extraordinary musicians, dedicated staff, visionary board and vibrant community, we will imagine the next chapter of this remarkable organization — one that deepens engagement, expands accessibility and embraces creativity at every level.”

Mallow Gulley comes to St. Paul from Michigan, where she has led the Kalamazoo Symphony Orchestra since 2019.

Under her leadership, the KSO achieved its first balanced budget in more than a decade, expanded audiences by nearly 80 percent and grew ticket revenue by 190 percent. She introduced the Sound Waves Series, a platform for community collaboration and returned opera to Kalamazoo with a staging of “Tosca.” She also facilitated performances and residencies with world-renowned artists, including Yo-Yo Ma, Emanuel Ax and Branford Marsalis.

Previously, Mallow Gulley held leadership roles at the Jacksonville Symphony, Washington Performing Arts and Orchestra Iowa. She holds a master’s in arts management from American University.

The appointment follows a nine month national search led by a committee made up of board members, musicians and staff.

“Jessica has a winning personality, an infectious enthusiasm and a genuine love for the SPCO,” said violinist and member of the search committee Nina Tso-Ning Fan. “I am confident that her leadership will bring renewed vigor and excitement to the organization and to the Arts Partnership.”

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A federal judge on Tuesday ordered a major makeover of Google’s search engine in a crackdown aimed at curbing the corrosive power of an illegal monopoly, but rebuffed the U.S. government’s request to break up the company.

The 226-page decision made by U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta in Washington, D.C., will likely ripple across the technological landscape at a time when the industry is being reshaped by artificial intelligence breakthroughs — including conversational “answer engines” as companies like ChatGPT and Perplexity try to upend Google’s long-held position as the internet’s main gateway.

Mehta is trying to rein in Google by placing new restraints on some of the tactics the company deployed to drive traffic to its search engine and other services. But the judge stopped short of banning the multi-billion dollar deals that Google has been making for years to lock in its search engine as the default on smartphones, personal computers and other devices. Those deals, involving payments of more than $26 billion annually, were a focal point of a nearly five-year-old antitrust case brought by the U.S. Justice Department.

The judge also rejected the U.S. Justice Department’s effort to force Google to sell its popular Chrome browser, concluding the request was a bridge too far.

But Mehta is ordering Google to give its current and would-be rivals access to some of its search engine’s secret sauce — the data stockpiled from trillions of queries that helped to continually improve the quality of its search results.

Authorities are searching for a man who they say is “armed and dangerous” and is charged with murdering a St. Paul man at a Minneapolis park in July.

An arrest warrant was issued for Seneca Lee Jones, 27, in the shooting death of 19-year-old Darnell Hawkins Mapp. Mapp was found with multiple gunshot wounds in Mississippi Regional Park in July.

Jones is charged with second-degree murder and prohibited possession of ammunition or a firearm after a prior offense. The criminal complaint gives his address as Brooklyn Park, but says police searched his home in Apple Valley.

The complaint, which was unsealed Friday, gave the following details from prosecutors:

At about 3:10 a.m. on July 20, police received reports of a shooting at the park. When they arrived there was a large group of people yelling and “frantically” running around the area.

An unresponsive man who had been shot was sitting on the ground with his back against a parked car. Lifesaving measures were attempted, but he died at the scene.

The man was later identified as Mapp.

Witnesses said Mapp and Jones had been “in a feud” over stolen property the night of the shooting. Several witnesses told police that Jones allegedly shot Mapp from behind multiple times as the younger man was walking away from him.

During the execution of a search warrant, detectives found that Jones had allegedly called his wife more than 50 times in the hour after the shooting. In addition, location data on his phone showed him at the park at the time of the shooting and that he left shortly after, the complaint said.

The search warrant also yielded two handguns, ammunition and firearm magazines in Jones’ Apple Valley home. Jones has “multiple prior felonies that prohibit him from possessing a firearm, including convictions for first-degree burglary and for having a firearm after being prohibited, according to the complaint.

The complaint said Jones’ whereabouts are unknown but he is believed to be “armed and dangerous and a significant threat to public safety.”
