It certainly does not have 70 percent support among the state's Hispanics...more like 70 percent of Hispanics oppose it.
I also found it ironic that, according to one national poll, it has 2/3 majority support nationwide AND a slighlty larger majority believing it is discriminatory. IMO, a sad commentary when a majority of the population thinks its ok to discriminate (as long as it is discriminating against someone else).
And while I dont live in AZ, I knew that it has a majority white population...despite the assertion by our resident Arizonan to the contrary.
