'Tis the Season for Election Hijinks

This from Garden Grove, CA:

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.

"It's a very malicious and degrading letter. It's to pull Latinos down and make them afraid," said Benny Diaz, who is running for City Council in Garden Grove. He said his wife and five other people he knows had received the letter.

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."

The truth is that immigrants who become naturalized citizens can legally register to vote.

A little history here: "B-1" Bob Dornan used to represent Garden Grove in Congress but lost to Dem Loretta Sanchez after an election full of voter fraud. There were likely a great many illegals who voted for Sanchez (and probably continue to do so today). That doesn't excuse the people who sent these letters, but I can understand their frustration.
