- Louis DeSipio, Chicano/Latino studies and political science professor, is quoted in the The Desert Sun October 27, 2012
From The Desert Sun:

Republican Rep. Mary Bono Mack understands the urgency of expanding her political
circle to appeal to Coachella Valley Latinos, a bloc that makes up 47 percent of registered
voters in the newly drawn 36th Congressional District... While other Latino candidates
are poised to take over seats vacated by retired white lawmakers, UC Irvine political
science professor Louis DeSipio says Ruiz is the only candidate within striking distance
of forcing a white incumbent out of office.
