The SEIU's campaign for Jerry Brown hit Meg Whitman hard a day after the news about her illegal immigrant nanny emerged, and it's up today with a spot picturing Jerry Brown beside farmworker leader Cesar Chavez and narrated by Chavez's great-niece.

"When Jerry Brown was governor, he fought alongside my uncle Cesar Chavez to garner fair wages for workers and help open the doors for a generation of Latinos to gain access to education and be successful," says Christina Chavez, in Spanish.

She goes on to hammer Meg Whitman for opposing legislation that would allow students in the U.S. illegally to qualify for in-state financial aid at California colleges.

"Meg Whitman wants to prevent undocumented students from attending college, taking away their opportunity to succeed," says the younger Chavez.

1. Oh shit
Thats it, this election is over. Brown just locked in the Hispanic vote, playing up his relationship with Cesar Chavez is genius and getting his niece to narrate is so smart. This along with maid-gate just sealed her fate, it is now impossible for her to get the necessary Hispanic votes.
