So much so that the mayor won both Republican and Democratic primaries. This town has been in the headlines ever since passing a number of anti- illegal immigration laws that were widely criticized by the usual suspects, the illegals and their pr machines aided by the MSM as well.
Hazelton had better be careful as it may find itself overrun by legal aliens looking to escape their cities that are headed in the exact opposite direction, like Chicago for one.
Especially after yesterday's developments that I am also blogging about here today. I may be looking at Real Estate in Hazelton to coincide with my departure from the Republican party if this bill gets ramrodded through the senate and signed by Bush.

Mayor wins both GOP, Democrat primaries
WorldNetDaily: : "The Hazleton, Pa., mayor who launched a war on the impact of illegal aliens in his city was warned that his future political career would 'haunted' by the decision, but now Louis J. Barletta has won not only the GOP nomination for mayor, which he was seeking, but the Democratic nomination by virtue of 1,200 write-in votes.
According to the Northeastern Pennsylvania Times Leader, Barletta apparently is favored to serve a third term as the town's mayor after the general election results are finalized in November.
Barletta told the newspaper he was 'honored and humbled by the amount of support I received.'"According to unofficial returns, Democrats cast more than 1,200 write-in votes for Barletta, while the Democratic contender, Mike Marsicano, captured 739. On the GOP ballot, Barletta got 1,363 votes to 83 for government watchdog Dee Deakos.
Deakos said the popularity Barletta earned while proposing, implementing and defending in court the city's Illegal Immigration Relief Act made a difference. And Marsicano has said he does not plan a write-in campaign in November. more
