Campaign spokeswoman Sarah Pompei confirmed that Meg Whitman is opening an office in Santa Ana and said that it will “help our get-out-the-vote efforts for Meg and the entire Republican ticket,” according to the O.C. Register.
The Whitman office will be on Fourth Street, in a former Western Wear store.
I find it highly unlikely that many residents of Santa Ana will be inclined to vote for Whitman and her GOP cohorts. Her campaign chairman is former Governor Pete Wilson, who championed the infamous Prop. 187.
Here is how an L.A. Times reporter assessed Whitman’s attempt to court the Latino vote:
Yes, Zorro is gay. Zorro is gay in San Francisco, black in South Africa, an Asian in Europe, a Chicano in San Ysidro, an anarchist in Spain, a Palestinian in Israel, a Mayan Indian in the streets of San Cristobal, a Jew in Germany, a Gypsy in Poland, a Mohawk in Quebec, a pacifist in Bosnia, a single woman on the Metro at 10pm, a peasant without land, a gang member in Santa Ana, an unemployed worker, an unhappy student and, of course, a good government advocate in Anaheim.
Zorro is all the exploited, marginalized, oppressed minorities resisting and saying `Enough'. He or she is every minority who is now beginning to speak and every majority that must shut up and listen. He or she is every untolerated group searching for a way to speak. Everything that makes power and the good consciences of those in power uncomfortable -- this is Zorro.
‘Twill be quite instructive for the peasants – ahem, campesinos – of this small burgh to witness the pageantry of Her Thick-Necked Majesty’s court. I daresay you may underestimate your countrymen’s traditional reverence for aristocratic privilege. We shall see, my fine fellow, Mr. – what is that – Senor Zorro.
Or with 2 of the 3 council seats all ready spoken for, and no state or national Latino to vote for, I think the Latinos’ will stay home this election and let the Viet’s make the hard decisions this time around.
