| A group that sponsored Proposition 187, a measure denying public services to illegal immigrants that was blocked by the courts, will try to place a similar initiative on the November ballot next year. < -snip- > Ron Prince of Save Our State said polls show that Proposition 187 continues to be popular with voters, and drives for the recall and a referendum on the driver license law show that signatures can be gathered on the Internet. "This business of trying to pander to one ethnic group or another - that doesn't wash very well with the public," Prince said. The secretary of state gave the group approval yesterday to gather the 598,105 signatures needed to place the initiative on the ballot.
