HOW IT STARTED
In 2020 Republicans waged an aggressive campaign to elect Yvette Herrell, an unabashed Trumper and right-wing zealot, to represent New Mexico’s Second Congressional District (CD2). Since taking office, Herrell has voted against just about everything—including the American Rescue Plan, reproductive rights and the environment. That’s why a group of determined volunteers formed BlueCD2 NM and worked to expose Herrell’s one-sided agenda. HOW IT’S GOING Happily, Gabe Vasquez, a Democrat, won the race with our backing. Yvette Herrell was defeated in the midterms by a narrow margin of less than 2,000 votes. Our Get Out the Vote (GOTV) effort succeeded in motivating about 5,000 infrequent voters to go to the polls and vote. We can reasonably say our efforts may have made the difference which flipped a red seat blue. Learn more about Gabe here. Our membership is statewide (and even national) and includes like-minded organizations and individuals. We welcome volunteers to join us for the important work ahead. In the next 2 years, we plan to focus on communicating Democratic accomplishments and drawing attention to MAGA Republican antics and misdirection.

Our District |
We're a group of like-minded folks who don't believe Yvette Herrell is focused on New Mexico's Congressional District 2, but rather on whatever the extreme right of the Republican Party feels is important. CD2 deserves a congressional representative like Gabe Vasquez, who is focused on CD2's actual needs.
If you agree, please sign up here and tell us a bit about yourself. We're excited to have you join us! We support Democratic policies & candidates up and down the ballot in CD2Our objectives:
|
CD2 is one of the largest congressional districts in the country, and includes most of the southern half of New Mexico. Its unique characteristics include the oil patch, ranchers, farmers, indigenous people and much, much more. It deserves a far better representative in Congress than we have currently.
