Thinking about immigration locally, McHenry County Sheriff Keith Nygren has a win-win potential.
He somehow convinced the Northwest Herald to allow him to make a front page pitch to Latino voters the Sunday before last.
But, as reported only
- in a Chicago Tribune edition not seen in McHenry County and
- on McHenry County Blog,
Nygren joined Homeland Security’s Secure Communities program, as of April 1st.
Through June, Nygren detained 116 illegals who fit the program’s definition of “criminal.”
When Nygren wants the Northwest Herald to run this story, I’ll give odds that it will be on the front page. Such a story will align him with the national Republican position on the issue.
Of course, the spurned Daily Herald might beat McHenry County’s newspaper of record to the punch.
