Did the Hispanic Vote Win Mass. For Scott Brown? John A. Tures, a political science professor with LaGrange College, says Scott Brown won Massachusetts due to "defections" by Hispanic voters from the Democratic party. "I know what you're thinking. . . Coakley must have run some anti-immigrant policy, while Brown was soft on immigration. But Coakley was the one with the pro-immigration policy . . . As for Brown, his campaign website said 'I welcome legal immigration to this country. However, we are also a nation of laws and government should not adopt policies that encourage illegal immigration . . . I oppose amnesty. . . '" Tures concludes, "Independents kept the race in play, but failing to energize the Democrat base did more to undermine Coakley. And the biggest percentage point source of Democrat defection was the Hispanic vote." |
