A bit surprising: Nearly 3 in 4 Arizona voters favor the Dream Act

Arizona’s government, as the first to pass a harsh immigration law, is ground zero for anti-immigrant sentiment among lawmakers. Even this state’s voters, however, overwhelmingly support the DREAM Act, which will provide a path to citizenship for undocumented young people who earn college degrees or who serve in the military. 73 percent of registered voters in Arizona support the DREAM Act, including 70 percent of white Arizonans.

A little positive news out of Arizona. I wonder how tea bagger politicians in the state (who are busy at the moment passing legislation protecting the state from the UN's Agenda 21) there are going to deal with this - besides ignore it of course.
