Why wouldn;t the GOP what hispanics to votet? Hispanics vote over 60% for Republicans.
The reason the Democrats keep getting surprised everytime they lose is that they think all hispanics are Puerto Ricans, who do vote Democrat, as do many urban hispanics. But most hispanics don;t fall for the whole "party line thing.
Besides, if you read the story you'd see the police are kind of hedging their bets that their suspect was the actual candidate:
"We have identified where we believe the mailing list was obtained," said Nathan Barankin, spokesman for Attorney General Bill Lockyer.
With a statement like that they don't sound like they have a smoking gun.

GOP leader, George W. Bush has made many concessions for the hispanics; however, many of his fellow GOP's are against him. In the end hispanic citizens complement the GOP: religion + business + population boost = GOP fav's. This is why Bush is so smart with his recomendations, and policies that he's done so far.

Hispanics traditionally vote republican. Except, of course, the army of criminals, the democrats have voting illegally for them.
Also, since the dems are so anti-border security and those criminals come into the hispanic community and primarily vicitimize hispanics.....well, I wouldn't count much on the hispanic vote for the democrats the next couple of elections, lol.

The GOP wants every person who is legally entitled to vote. to go to the polls on election day and vote for whomever they choose.
Everybody should oppose any unauthorized person from voting including all noncitizens that are in this country legally or illegally.
I'm certain Mexico would take offense if millions of Americans crossed their borders and attempted to vote thereby influencing the Mexican elections. Fair is fair we won't vote in your elections and noncitizens in the US should refrain from voting in our elections until they have earned that right, remember voting is a privilege that must be earned.

Speaking for myself , my only concern about Hispanics is the use of the spanish language. This is The U.S.A. English first.

it doesnt say hisanics, it says illegal immigrant, who do not have a right to vote in this country. DONT TWIST AROUND WORDS not all hispanics are illegal, it applies to ANYone without their citizenship. This is no news because you have always had to be a citizen to vote, no matter race!

niether side is great, and until I see it in a real newspaper or real news program, I'll say its hogwash.

It says if your residence is illegal, so legal can vote.
