We have an update on the case against community organizer Nativo "Larry" Lopez. Latest word from Salvador Hernandez in the Orange County Register is that a settlement agreement couldn’t be reached. He's facing four felony charges of voter fraud.
Lopez, who is national president of Mexican American Political Association and national director of Hermandad Mexicana Latinoamericana, said the charges against him were groundless and he and his attorney planned to fight the allegations.
Of course they are groundless.
Lopez has faced voter trouble in the past, including in 1996 for allegedly registering new citizens in the congressional district where Democrat Loretta Sanchez upset incumbent Bob Dornan.
A congressional investigation found some voters had cast ballots before their citizenship was finalized. The Orange County District Attorney’s office investigated the allegations, but no charges were filed.
Poor persecuted Larry.
