Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: The pan-ethnic labels of Latino and Hispanic were originally created to refer to Latin American immigrants who were increasingly being viewed as a distinct group. Although, traditionally national origin identities have been preferred over the Latino identity, many have now started to prefer the latter. However, there is still relatively little known about how an attachment to the pan-ethnic Latino identity is developed and what its implications are for political behavior. Consequently, the focus of this study is on how national origin diversity and the interactions between these different subgroups affect Latino identity and preferences for a Latino candidate. The Latino population continues to grow, becoming more diverse with a larger number of immigrants coming from distinct parts of Latin America thus creating more opportunities for interactions between different communities. The hypothesis offered suggests that as Latino subgroups interact with one another more frequently they will become more likely to accept pan-ethnic identities and loosen their attachment to national origin identities. The 2006 Latino National Survey and the 2006 American Community Survey are used to measure subgroup interactions. The author looks at marriages between individuals of different national origins and creates an index that measures national origin diversity within different metropolitan areas. A preliminary analysis suggests that Latino inter-group marriages have a significant effect on increasing attachment to the Latino identity. By further exploring Latino heterogeneity this study can offer a much needed insight of how the changing demographics could either help—or undermine—preference for a co-ethnic Latino candidate.
