Hillary Clinton’s lead over Donald Trump among Hispanic voters has nearly doubled over the last three months and she now leads her Republican challenger by a staggering 48 points among that demographic.

A new Florida Atlantic University Business and Economics Polling Initiative (FAU BEPI) survey finds Clinton now tops Trump 66 percent to 18 percent among Hispanics, a 22 point increase over the 26 percent advantage she held back in May.

Clinton's Edge Across the Board 

Researchers found among Democratic Hispanics, Clinton has now gained an 85 percent to 6 percent advantage and with independents she holds a 55 percent to 17 percent edge.

Even among GOP Hispanics, pollsters found Clinton manages to snare nearly one-third of the vote at 56 percent to 31 percent.

Clinton’s rising level of support among Latinos nearly puts her on par to match the grand levels of support President Obama benefited from in his 2012 takedown of Mitt Romney (71 percent to 27 percent), earning him his second term in office.

"Clinton has taken some major strides to increase her support among Hispanics," said BEPI director Monica Escaleras. "Her efforts to win over many who said they were undecided a couple of months ago are paying off."

A deeper analysis of the data reveals voters are convinced Clinton would be better than Trump on such key issues as the economy (62.5 percent to 23 percent) and keeping the country safe from terrorism (56.2 percent to 22.9 percent).

Overall, Clinton has increased her favorable rating by more than 12 points since May, from 41.6 to 53.8 percent, while also decreasing her unfavorable rating from 31 to 25.5 percent. Meanwhile, Trump's overall rating has now plummeted to a -49.8 percent.

Clinton's DACA, DAPA Support 

Clinton recently doubled down on her vow to defend DACA and DAPA and bring about comprehensive immigration reform. Branding her race against Trump "a referendum on immigration," earlier this month she revealed plans to create a new office of Immigrant Affairs if she is elected.

"I have proposed an Office of Immigrant Affairs for the White House so that we are able to answer questions and provide information and help people."

Clinton also pledged to take a long, hard look at the growing debate about deportation, adding that foreign-born moms and dads working in the U.S. now shell out more than $12 billion in annual taxes and should be free to live their lives without the threat of massive expulsions.

In contrast, Trump has long taken a hard-line stance on immigration, which includes a vow to deport up to 12 million immigrants and build a wall along the Mexican border to further keep them out.
