Perhaps the voters need to start paying attention?
A survey in today's Rocky tells us that voters still cite illegal immigration as their biggest concern, "and those most worried about immigration heavily favor Republican candidate Bob Beauprez over Democrat Bill Ritter, by a margin of 36 percentage points."
Perhaps the voters don't realize that Bill Ritter's record on illegal immigration is much stronger than Both Ways Bob's. Or that Colorado's Democratic legislature is responsible for America's strictest illegal immigration reform.
Want more on this story? Check out Luis' diary at Square State, where he points out, "There is a false assumption that when voters tell pollsters that they believe undocumented immigration is a big issue, what they are saying is that they favor Tom Tancredo-style punitive approaches to immigration." In fact, "61% of Coloradans favor allowing undocumented immigrants a pathway to citizenship."

and how was the survey conducted - it is very easy to obtain the results/answers wanted if the questions are asked in a leading way.
I'd like to see the methodology and actual questions asked.
