That had nothing to do with the AIP, a minor party that polls 1% on its good days. It had everything to do with Gilchrist's fame as co-founder of the border-watching Minuteman Project.\r\n\r\nHammering away at one issue \u2014 illegal immigration \u2014 he raised a remarkable $500,000 without major-party backing. He even seemed to raise Democrats' hopes that he weakened Campbell enough to give their man, Young, a chance. Late in the campaign, Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean recorded a phone message urging the party faithful to vote.\r\n\r\nCampbell won on the strength of party loyalty, endorsements and his own popularity as a state legislator. But he was forced to defend his record on immigration, and he had to disown a couple of votes he cast in the state Assembly \u2014 one to allow instate tuition for illegal immigrants at state colleges and another to accept Mexican consular cards as identification.\r\n\r\nRepublicans in the New York-Washington axis may not see it, but there's a deep divide in their party between elites and grass-roots voters. In places like Southern California, it's impossible to ignore. Voters want to see the law enforced, both at the border and against employers, and they see their elected leaders doing nothing.\r\n\r\nWhen fringe candidates do a better job addressing mainstream concerns than establishment politicians do, the latter can expect trouble. This week they got their warning shot.

Mr. Campbell only won because of the hundreds of thousands of dollars he spent getting people to fill out absentee ballots and &quot;banking&quot; them. On Election Day, Mr. Campbell won only 30% of the vote, the Democratic candidate won 32% and Mr. Gilchrist won 35%. Mr. Gilchrist ran an abysmal campaign, spending his money on radio ads whose audience largely lived outside the district and ignoring absentee voters and grassroots targeting. Noting that a majority of the votes cast were absentee ballots, political consultant Chuck Muth observes that &quot;the Gilchrist campaign simply didn't show up for the first half of the game.&quot;\r\n\r\nThe lesson from the Orange County results is that President Bush was wise to discuss combining better enforcement measures with a guest-worker program in his recent speeches along the border. The House is scheduled to vote today on a bill that would tighten employer sanctions and make it easier to deport criminal aliens. That will pass overwhelmingly.
