A SPECIAL REPORT: TUESDAY’S ELECTION

LATINO VOTERS: Although one in five Orange County residents is Latino, those numbers haven’t translated into ballot box clout. But a bipartisan voter registration effort, financed by local business, has signed up more than 3,500 new voters for the primary, with 12,000 more expected by November, says organizer Zeke Hernandez. . . . Next year, 150,000 Latinos involved in the amnesty program will be eligible for citizenship, and Hernandez hopes to register most of them.
