Trump’s net favorability rating among Hispanics in a poll from Latino Decisions last month was negative 78 points. He was viewed unfavorably by 87 percent of Latinos and favorably by just 9 percent.

If those figures held until November, Trump would likely need to win around 65 percent of the white vote to prevail. The only election in recent times when any nominee pulled off such a feat was in 1984, when President Ronald Reagan won in a landslide.

Here are the states, all won by President Obama in 2012, that Trump would have to target as he seeks to scramble the electoral map and secure the 270 Electoral College votes needed to win the White House.
