What Went Down In The Third Democratic Debate

Support for increased legal immigration has also increased over the past few years, particularly among Democrats.

The policy discussion has been in-depth as usual tonight, though the guns and immigration discussions had fewer numbers than the health care debate. But it still assumes a lot of voter knowledge.

Several candidates have said something in Spanish during this debate. As Poll Bot mentioned in the first debate, a YouGov poll conducted between June 21 and 24 found that 42 percent of adults think that a presidential candidate speaking Spanish during a televised presidential debate is pandering, while 31 percent think it’s respectful. Twenty-seven percent were not sure.
