    I grew up with the kids of the original set of Cuban refugees and thought it was because they were the rich people fleeing Castro. So they were already aligned with the right here,they like the idea of being on the upper side of a class divide.

    The newer ones may just be anti -abortion, there are a lot of those “single issue voters” everywhere not just here.

      It is amazing how the single issue voters choose the party that blatantly lies about their single issue.

      Additionally there are a lot of people who choose to remain ignorant about Batista. A communist revolution overthrowing an objectively brutal regime really gets the right wingers on the defensive.
