"I have to be an example for my community, for my co-workers," said Arizmendi, a housekeeper at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas. Arizmendi is also a member of the Culinary Workers Union, which is more than half Latino. She took time off from her job to help register fellow union members and get them to the polls.
"I was in 110 degrees, knocking doors," Arizmendi said. "And now I can see the differences. I'm proud of that. And I feel happy."
