“There’s a real fear of being unemployed,” said Alonzo Morado, state director of Democracia U.S.A., another Latino voter-registration group.”

Well, then, by all means, keep those borders open. Nothing will enhance you chances of finding a job faster than adding a couple million more people willing to work for less.

It could also boost legal Latino turnout as well. Most of the latino folks I work with are fans of SB1070.

It looks like it's going to be Latinos vs. Americans and Arizonans this year in Arizona.

United we stand, divided we fall. The battle between the various tribes and clans in America has begun.

I think illegally voting should be made an act of espionage, and the person should be tried as such.

The reason why the “Hispanic wave” never happens in AZ is because (1) Most legal Latinos don’t approve of illegals; and (2) AZ’s Prop 200 introduced strict Voter ID requirements at the polls, keeping out all but the most fraud-intent illegals.

True that.

Add to which, few are more against illegal immigration than an illegal who is already here.

I don’t buy the notion SB1070 will lead to wholesale pro amnesty turnout.
The tide nationally is turning against and it has a huge demoralizing effect.

If we don’t support amnesty, birthright citizenship and open borders, we’ll lose the Latino vote. /s

Yes, that is what I was driving at. Legal immigrants(latino or otherwise)usually are against freeloading illegals bypassing the system after the legals put in years of hard work to get here legally not to mention the long drawn out process of becoming a citizen.

Of course they are for it, because most of em don't have to pay for it.

It's easy to spend other peoples money.

Don't get caught up in that. My family is half Latino. How would you tell the difference between my moreno family members and the illegals?

My family is as American as anyone on this forum, even if they were born brown and speaking Spanish as the language if their birth.

The left wants you to feel this way, they are controlling you if they succeed. The situation is more complicated than what the left wants you to believe it is. We cannot divide the two camps into "Latinos versus..."

This is a fight against socialist balkanization of American culture, a division of our "one people" back into many, and if they can set us to fight one another, they have won...

I agree, voter fraud is revolting!

If the Latinos and their sympathizers do indeed win in the Arizona elections, it will be a huge object lesson to the rest of the country not to let these destroyers into their states any longer.

To wait will insure their states the same fate as Arizona and we are in dire straits. We have an increase in home invasions and huge spike in murders in Tucson which according to oldtimers is probably because the vermin who are involved in low level drug smuggling come up on visitor's visas to “hide” from the violence down there. But as usual, they cannot run and they cannot hide and their “creditors” follow them up here to collect.

Do not be fooled by anyone who says this illegal immigration problem is good for America or that it cannot be fixed. Do not elect anyone who is mushy on the issue.

And if we do support them, there might not be a vote.
