You forget, my friend. Prop 187 was not overturned by the CA Supreme Court. It never got that far. See the below from Wikipedia:
On November 11, 1994, federal judge Matthew Byrne issued a temporary restraining order against it, on grounds that it exceeded state authority in the federal realm of immigration. The case worked its way through the courts. The multiple cases were consolidated and brought before Judge Mariana Pfaelzer. When the opinion was given three years later, Governor Wilson appealed it, which led it being brought to the federal Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. However, in 1998, before the judges could rule, newly elected Democratic Gov. Gray Davis had the case brought before mediation. Following this, he dropped the appeals process before the courts, effectively killing the law.
So the Dems used a delaying tactic, and when they assumed the Governor's office, they effectively dropped the charges. Meaning, the appeal was the State versus the illegals and once the State declined to pursue the appeal the law was dead. Pretty clever.
I can't believe we didn't try again in 1996.
