“The stakes are high for Hispanics in this election, and we take absolutely nothing for granted. We are investing more and earlier than ever to reach all the Latino communities in the country, because we understand that it is crucial that they hear everything that President Biden and Vice President Harris are achieving for us.“Married said.
For the past two years, Casado has held the position of director of Hispanic media and spokesperson at the Democratic National Committee (DNC), the party’s governing body.
Casado played an especially relevant role in the party’s strategy for the November 2022 midterm elections, in which the Democrats maintained their majority in the Senate and lost fewer seats than initially predicted in the Low camera.
Within the DNC, Casado led a seven-figure operation to create ads in Spanish and English targeting Latino voters.

Married, known as “bruise”, has also worked with various members of Congress, such as Democratic lawmaker Donna Shalalawho between 2019 and 2021 represented in the Low camera the 27th arrondissement Florida.
Until now, Casado lived in Miami (Florida), but she has already moved with her family, her husband and 4-year-old son, to Wilmington (Delaware), where Biden’s campaign headquarters are located.
One of the aspects that Casado highlights about the Biden government is the low unemployment rate for Latinos, which is at its lowest point in history, and the opening of small businesses at the fastest pace in the last decade, in addition to the ability of many members of the community to access health insurance.
“We have a great story to tell and that is exactly what we are doing, I am very proud to be a part of this unprecedented effort.”, concluded Casado.
