Governor reaps benefits of Latinos’ support – California

Tagged: , , ,

“One day last summer, as Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger was about to step into a meeting with the editorial board of a Spanish language newspaper, he received a briefing from a campaign aide.

They discussed issues that could come up, potential land mines in the governor’s efforts to woo Latino voters, such as the Minutemen and Proposition 187.

After conferring with other aides, the governor went into the meeting and for the first time disavowed his previous support for the civilian border patrol brigade President Bush has branded as “vigilantes” — and reaffirmed that he was wrong to vote for the 1994 measure to ban public services to illegal immigrants.”
