Blue CD2 NM is supporting these great local candidates
How did we choose candidates to support?
We looked for candidates who were willing to jump in and run for office so they could help preserve the values of New Mexicans against greed and short-sightedness. These were candidates who mirror the work of our congressional representative, Gabe Vasquez; his commitment to empowering working people to be able to care for their families and their communities inspires us. Likewise, the candidates we chose to support in down ballot races inspire us.
