Gainesville’s Latino population and its concerns were the focus of a mayoral forum Wednesday night at the Gainesville Civic Center. The event was hosted by the Georgia Association of Latino Elected Officials and Univision 34, a Spanish-language television station in Atlanta. GALEO is a nonprofit advocacy group that has targeted Gainesville’s at-large voting system, asserting it dilutes Hispanic voting strength.
