Orange County supervisors decline to send letter reassuring Latino voters – California

Tagged:
Instead, they adopt a resolution condemning the mailing, sent by a GOP campaign, that warned immigrants about voting.

“Orange County supervisors on Tuesday refused to send a clarification letter to 14,000 Latino Democrats who received a mailing linked to a Republican congressional candidate warning immigrants they could be jailed and deported if they vote in next month’s election.

The four Republican supervisors overrode the request of the lone Democrat, Lou Correa, that the letter be sent out and instead passed a resolution condemning the campaign mailer. The California secretary of state’s office has already said it will send a corrective notice to recipients of the original letter.”
