By JULIANA BARBASSA, Associated Press
(Published: August 1, 2003) SALINAS, Calif. (AP) - Ten months after vetoing a bill that would have let illegal immigrants get driver's licenses, Gov. Gray Davis has reversed course, drawing accusations that he is pandering to Hispanics to try to save his job from a recall vote.
The governor, a Democrat who faces a recall election Oct. 7, said he would sign the bill if it reached his desk.
