I know the title is a joke but yes, minority groups (excluding the LGBT+ community) are voting red in larger numbers than ever.
I can't find information on minorities voting conservative.
Do you have any articles I can look up or keywords to search for?
The number should be near zero for minority groups buuuuut yeah.

Latinos are typically either VERY conservative or VERY liberal. Cubans especially if they hate Castro.
It also doesn't help that there were efforts by the right to spread misinformation to right leaning Hispanic voters linking democrats to the authoritarian leaders they fled. It was an effective strategy.
Also with how immigration from other countries is controlled to typically target highly specialized workers who will see themselves as part of the upper class while over here.
The western showdown with caste discrimination is a direct result of this, migrants from south asia tend to imbalance towards higher caste individuals who have a chip on their shoulder from India having passed caste affirmative action and who then go on to pick fights about how its their religious right to engage in it in the west.
The Ramaswamy gang if you will.
These people want to imagine themselves as part of the old boys club that the republicans try to sell themselves as whenever a word can be gotten in over their rabid white christian nationalist voting base.
Oh, do you just mean that any minority vote higher than zero for Trump is surprising?
That survey had a lot of information, is there any historical comparison like the change in voting habits over time that you mentioned?
Source?
Trump hits new poll highs with Black, Hispanic voters. What to make of it?
