Crossing the southern border after a long journey from Nicaragua more than three decades ago, they surrendered to the authorities, claimed asylum and raised their daughter in their new home in the Miami suburbs. Now, Abigail is one of a growing number of Latinos who think people like her parents should be turned away. “You don’t know their background,” she says, of the millions of illegal migrants who have arrived in the US under the Biden administration. “We don’t know what they’re doing. It’s scary.” “My parents did come illegally. But they went through the process when they were here. They got caught, [and] they went through the proper steps to become legalised.” The Telegraph met Abigail at the Alpha and Omega megachurch in Florida – a vast complex more similar to a concert venue than a traditional place of worship, where thousands of Latinos meet each Sunday. Like her, most of them are supporting Donald Trump. Polls show that Kamala Harris will be lucky to win half of the Latino population at this election, a fall from the 66 per cent support Joe Biden picked up in 2020. Trump has experienced an unprecedented surge among voters who were previously considered safely Blue. In Arizona and Nevada, two of the key battlegrounds, the rightward shift in Latino opinion could be enough to win him the White House. Trump’s core message on illegal migration has had surprising resonance with voters whose families themselves crossed the southern border and made the US their home. Alberto Delgado, the pastor at Alpha and Omega, arrived penniless from Cuba aged 15 and has since built a multi-million dollar Christian empire that broadcasts his sermons across Florida and South America each week. During Trump’s 2016 campaign, he was appointed as an adviser to the president on Christian and Hispanic issues, and attended monthly summits at the White House during his first term. A portrait of the two men hangs in a corridor at the back of the church. “The country cannot absorb this amount of people at once,” he says. “There are legal manners of arriving. And even though we, as Christians, must help those that are already here, something has to be done because of the high level of criminality. “The gangs, the delinquency…where are we going to put all the people? That’s why we lean towards Trump.”
