Tulare County (CA) editorial: new county lines offer new chance for Hispanic representation

Visalia Times-Delta.   A California editorial notes: 

"For starters, the population of Tulare County is now at least 58 percent Hispanic, and by the time the census tract numbers are revealed, that percentage could be higher. In 2000, the percentage of Hispanic residents was 51 percent.  In 2001, the county was under great pressure to make sure that at least one district was a 'minority majority.' With several supervisor districts having a majority of Hispanics, that pressure isn't as strong now."
