Link? We know that illegals were cut down significantly during his second term and that carries forward. We know that states have never complained as much as now. So, please tell us more about how he is going a better job.

Hey Kenneth, use your head. Fewer jobs and less money available cuts down illegal immigration. However, those with the intention to be involved in criminal activity haven't the very same deterrent. I would say that logic dictates the illegal immigration may be down, but the percentage of those with criminal predispositions is likely much higher.

Election 2010: Gubernatorial Scorecard Scorecard Ratings: Wisconsin Moves From Toss-Up to Leans Republican Thursday, August 12, 2010 Email to a Friend ShareThis.Advertisement New polling in Wisconsin moves the governor race from Toss-Up to Leans Republican in the Rasmussen Reports Gubernatorial Scorecard. Voters will elect governors in 37 states this November. Nineteen of those governorships are now held by Democrats, while Republicans sit in the governor’s chair in 18 of the states. The Rasmussen Reports Election 2010 Gubernatorial Scorecard shows Democrats solidly ahead in three states, with three more leaning their way. Republicans are running strongly in 14 states, and five more are leaning GOP. Hawaii is the only state with a Republican governor that is considered likely to elect a Democrat in November. But five states now headed by Democrats – Iowa, Kansas, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Wyoming – are seen as likely GOP pickups. Twelve states are currently viewed as Toss-Ups, including California, Florida, Illinois and Ohio. The Toss-Up states include six currently with Republican governors and six with Democrats as their chief executives. Adding spice to the political mix is the fact that these governors will all be in place as the states redistrict on the basis of new Census figures, a process that sets the boundaries of congressional districts and generally benefits the party in power. The state results and overall projections will be updated whenever new polling data justifies a change. In the table below, the states marked in red currently have a Republican governor. Those in blue currently have a Democratic governor.
