She waved off studies that stated that voting fraud is rare. Those researchers, she said, just aren’t “looking in the right places.”

It’s about time they went after those troublesome fraudsters in Laguna Nigel.

Having grown up in Orange County, what she was actually saying was “look in Santa Ana where all those dirty Spanish speakers live”

And Anaheim, where the whole city council was Hispanic at the time a guy I went to high school with was mayor (also Hispanic).

I was gonna make some remark about not expecting her to show up in Santa Ana. Thanks for getting it in there!

This is one of those times when I am not looking forward to Election Day. People who will be looking for something that is not there can very dangerous.

Any wonder why they would consider Santa Ana a “ghetto”? Shielding themselves from being openly racist towards brown people, right?

Depending on the part of Santa Ana you’re talking about, yeah, there’s some of that (lots of store signs in Spanish). Santa Ana is also - relatively speaking - one of the poorer cities in Orange County (it may actually have the lowest median income in the county); and when a lot of near by cities have median incomes double or even triple that of Santa Ana, the “ghetto” stuff is also relative. There’s also something of a shanty town that has formed outside some of the county buildings (Santa Ana is the county seat) in the last few years, so large number of homeless probably scares the crap out of them too. Lastly it’s one of the older cities in the county, meaning lots of old buildings that might not have been maintained as well as they should have been, so as the newer master planned cities in the south sprung up and grew, Santa Ana looked worse and worse.
