Perfect time for Trump to issue his first executive order pardon citing that the determining factor in the pardon was that she voted Republican .
And another story said she voted for Romney in 2012.
Immigrant hatred meets voter suppression.
Punishment does not fit the crime, but will serve to intimidate minority voters from participating. Way to go, Texas!
She could have shot somebody on 5th Avenue and got less jail time.
They just locked up one of their own illegal voters.
Way to go GOP is right.
Somehow I suspect that her sentence was more a result of five violations of the law. She is a serial illegal voter.
Obviously she did not vote illegally. Trump stated quite clearly that all illegal votes went to Clinton. QED
Pretty savage thing to do to a person who seems merely confused. And you have to figure it’s for political advantage. The prosecutor probably knows as well as any of us here there’s no massive voter fraud going on. And if not, a person so ignorant, credulous and deluded should not be in a position where trust, intelligence, knowledge and judgment are so important.
What happens to the children? What happens to the children of the deported Arizona women? These children are US citizens. These sentences and deportations are cruel and costly. Just to score points for the Breitbart crowd. When I searched for Ms. Ortega, I mostly found articles that were crowing about a non-citizen caught voting. The Breitbart crowd could not be more satisfied with an eight year sentence AND deportation.
As a convicted felon, she loses her nonexistent right to vote, yes?
Good grief; this is cruel and unusual punishment. When you think of how illegal rob-callers and switchboard jammers got off scot free when Bush won…this is a real, “just wow” moment. She’s paying the price for being Latina, that’s for sure.
Wilson is a fucking creep. She must feel really good about herself.
