Illegal border crossings make Arizona voters okay state-level enforcement

Quick Summary:

Arizona voters have approved letting local police arrest migrants suspected of illegally entering the state from Mexico, an authority that would encroach on the federal government's power over immigration enforcement but would not take effect immediately, if ever.

With the approval of Proposition 314, Arizona becomes the latest state to test the limits of what local authorities can do to curb illegal immigration.

The only presidential battleground state that borders Mexico, Arizona is no stranger to a bitter divide on the politics of immigration.
