The mayor of Charlotte has been “quite an ambassador” to the city’s Latinos, says Nolo Martinez.
But the candidate for governor from Charlotte, said Martinez, head of UNC-Greensboro’s Center for New North Carolinians, has been “the most anti-immigrant candidate in the mix.”
The fact that both are the same man, according to Martinez, says as much about the political process in North Carolina as it does about Pat McCrory.
“That in itself proves the point that when it comes to immigration issues, our candidates have a political agenda,” said Martinez, former director of Hispanic-Latino affairs in the Hunt and Easley administrations. “The dialogue is so bad, it’s as if we’re having a schoolyard fight.””*
