-- DIERSEN HEADLINE: ONE REASON WHY THERE ARE MORE VOTES FOR DEMOCRATS IN DUPAGE COUNTY: Sadly, low-income Hispanics vote overwhelmingly for Democrats. Sadly, Democrats have succeeded in getting 18,000 Medicaid recipients to live in DuPage County. According to DuPage County Health Department Executive Director Maureen McHugh, the "29,523 Hispanics who have moved into the county since 2003" are a "contributing factor" that explains the county's increasing number of "low-income residents." Increasingly, these low-income residents want taxpayers to pay for their "women, infant and children services" and their "mental health services." According to McHugh,"The largest low-income population lives in Willowbrook, where more than 20 percent of the population receives Medicaid."
