Record Latino Turnout for Obama

On MSNBC's The Cycle, Steve Kornacki noted that a Latino voting group (couldn't catch the name) conducted its final poll, and concluded that 73% of Latino voters will vote for President Obama, breaking the previous record of 72% from Bill Clinton's 1996 campaign.

Then, Touré says that would give Obama Nevada, Colorado, and Virginia.

Game, set, match.

Isn't this the proportion that will be voting for Obama, not the total amount voting?
