"Someone" is sending letters to latinos, saying immigrants can't vote

[BurtWorm]

"Someone" Republican no doubt. While Reepers weep about phoney stories of homeless men being lured to the polls with gin and cigarettes to vote for Democrats, they really do pull shit like this at every major election. It's all about suppressing the vote, which tells you a lot about how confident they are that they can sell their anti-democratic policies fairly. Bastids!

The state attorney general's office is investigating a letter received by some Southern California Hispanics that says it is a crime for immigrants to vote and tells them they could be jailed or deported if they go to the polls next month.<...>

The letter, written in Spanish, tells recipients: "You are advised that if your residence in this country is illegal or you are an immigrant, voting in a federal election is a crime that could result in jail time."
