University accused of race bias after hosting 'Spanish only' mayoral debate

A Miami mayoral debate that excluded any non Spanish speaking candidates has caused outrage among fellow hopefuls and Florida International University students where the meeting was held.

The debate was broadcast by Spanish language TV channel Univision, who invited only four out of 11 candidates running for the mayorship of Miami-Dade- all of whom were Spanish speaking.

The controversy comes after it was announced last month that the Hispanic population in the U.S. went up by 42 per cent in the last ten years to hit 50.5 million - making one in every six Americans Latino.

Univison responded by saying they invited Hispanic candidates Julio Robaina, Marcelo Llorente, Carlos Gimenez and Jose 'Pepe' Cancio because they were the four highest fund-raisers in the campaign.

Speaking to CBS after the debate, which was broadcast in Spanish, Marcelo Llorentesaid: 'Whenever we’re invited, we show up, often times not knowing who else is invited.
