DIAZ-BALART: "In conservative stronghold states like Texas, signs of a political shift among Latino voters with more now leaning Republican. Jose Arreola and Maria Batres live in El Paso." DIAZ-BALART (on camera): "Maria, you were a Democrat, and you are now a Republican. Why?" BATRES: "Because of the fact that the Democratic Party has changed a lot I identify more with the Republican Party." DIAZ-BALART: "What things?" BARTES: "Well, we're for God, country, family and hard work." DIAZ-BALART (voice-over): "Jose used to vote blue too, now he's also a Republican, and most concerned with immigration and beefing up border security." DIAZ-BALART (on camera): "What are the concerns you have about immigration?" ARREOLA: "The fact of the matter is that we -- you know, we don't feel safe anymore."
