Yeah, it’s no surprise that McCain’s hispandering didn’t net him jacksquat in the way of votes. Two counties in the vicinity cast only 15% of their votes for McCain, Starr & Zavala (down from 26 & 25% respectively in ‘04). The southermost county in the state to go GOP this year was Nueces (Corpus Christi), which still only barely broke for McCain with 52%, down from 57% in ‘04.

Cool. Lets play this game.
Got a copy of the full indictment?
Lets turn it around and use this as the basis to indict ... oh, lets see... who to start with?
How much higher was voter turnout in South Texas Hispanic counties in 2008 compared to 2004?
Like heavily rat MAVERICK County where the Maverick got barley 20%. And Zapata were ZERO votes were cast in the Republican primary. Apparently a fate repeated in many small Texas counties...but still.

Evidently the DA did not show up today for a hearing!
Looking at at least one Hispanic county, the turnout appeared dramatically up.
Zavala County
2004
Kerry - 2,332 - 75%
Dubya - 777 - 25%
2008
Obama - 3,263 - 84%
McCain - 596 - 15%
My borders are open.
About a year away from that at the rate we’re going. :-\
