Illegal immigration made an impact in Northern Virginia where a gang of illegal immigrants (who have been arrested before BUT NOT DEPORTED) are accused of some really horrible crimes of late.

OK.  Just saw the poll.  What did Kilgore do to strengthen his lead?

Also, in Herndon, the government is paying for a job center where illegal aliens can obtain employment.

If Arnold's propositions fail in the CA special election - or at least if most of them fail - he could be considered just about done.  His ratings are still abysmal here. 

And what about the California Border Police Initiative which is likely to be on the ballot next year?

Yeah, it looks like Kilgore is going to pull it out.

Its still possible for the Democrat to win, but less likely with the passing of every day.

You really should look a little closer.

Potts isn't pulling votes from Kilgore anymore than Anderson 'pulled' votes from Reagan in 1980.

Here's another example of how illegal aliens are impacting the Virginia elections:

Arrest made in Spotsylvania beating


By Minnie Roh
NBC12 News
Thursday, August 18, 2005

 



An illegal alien, Jose Ramirez, 28, has been arrested and charged with the brutal beating of a 15-year-old girl who allegedly ignored his whistles at a construction site in Spotsylvania County.

Police say the 15 year old girl suffered a broken nose, bone fracture to the right side of her face and received approximately 30 stitches to her face and back of her head.

Police say the 15 year old girl was walking by on a road, when Ramirez, who was working on a construction project at a nearby townhouse, whistled at her.

Witnesses told police the next thing they saw, Ramirez appeared enraged and took off running after the girl. He allegedly began to beat her on her face and head.

Ramirez then fled into a nearby wooded area. Short while later, authorities found Ramirez a few blocks away. Ramirez, an illegal alien from El Salvador, allegedly resisted arrest but was finally subdued.

Ramirez is facing aggravated malicious wounding charges as well as abduction with intent to defile.   Both charges carry a possible life sentence.
