She is half latina, the title is misleading.

She considers herself Latina.

“I am an example of what that fight is about,” Cortez Masto told a group of high school students in Nevada in September. “Can you imagine my grandfather if he were alive today and saw his granddaughter who was the attorney general for eight years in the state now running to be the first Latina ever elected to the United States Senate? That’s incredible.”

There's really no such thing as "half latina"as its already a mix of multiple ethnicities

She's a subhuman who's even more dishonest and incompetent than Hilarities Clintones.

I respect that and and she can consider herself anything, but she is still technically mixed.

I'm not going to police her identity, but she is still half mexican mestiza and italian at the end of the day, basically.

Half mestiza?
Mestiza is not an ethnicity or a race really. You're literally saying "half mixed"
She is a latina. The only objective thing to say would be half Mexican/half Italian

No no no. Mexican is a nationality. She could have been half white mexican and italian, half black mexican and italian, but she is half mestiza mexican and half italian. Mestiza means someone who is of Native American and white European descent, in rought equal proportions, which is what the vast majority of Mexicans are.

There are no white mexicans nor black mexicans. Mexico is not America. There are only indigenous people, mestizos, and foreigners (Lebanese, Chinese, Mormons, Mennonites, Germans, Italians, etc.).
