The Political Importance of Washoe County and Its Latino Voters
As the primary season begins, Reno-based filmmaker Nico Colombant looks back at local campaign activities in a ThisisReno five-part documentary series called Swing County USA.
Each short documentary goes behind the scenes and into the trenches of the growing importance of Washoe County in general and Latino voters specifically.
Part 1 focuses on the Donald Trump effect and the galvanization of would-be voters for and against his proposals. It includes interviews with local activists, journalists, campaign volunteers, researchers and politicians.
