She's a northeast RINO who hasn't lived in NM for years. But Heinrich, who is a far-left radical, doesn't live here either and even a RINO would be better than what we have.

BTW, Heinrich brought in nearly $4.5 million last year and ended 2023 with roughly $3.5 million cash-on-hand in his campaign coffers

Being from the northeast and with her connections, she has the backing of the National Republican Senatorial Committee which encouraged her to run.

IIRC Laxalt, who ran in Nevada, is her half-brother.

Poppa Pete was a hound dog who got around.

NM and Arizona have been overrun by Californicate progs. They are like locusts heading east.

There’s another candidate here in SE New Mexico I’d like to hear about from folks in Carlsbad. He is Steven McCutcheon who Governor Lujan-Grisham appointed as state senator to replace retiring Gay Kernan. Larry Scott, the other candidate, is from Hobbs and has been in the legislature as a conservative representative for many years and well represented the needs of SE NM citizens. He was recommended by county commissioners in several counties to replace Kernan but MLG chose McCutcheon.

McCutcheon apparently has quite a war chest as he frequently appears in ads on Fox News and was interviewed by Harris Faulkner on Fox the other morning. Also, I just received a mail flyer from him claiming Scott supports sanctuary cities. That doesn’t fit Larry’s MO so I suspect McCutcheon has an army of dirt diggers who will stop at nothing to smear a good candidate.

Thanks for the info, Dave.
No wonder I never knew of her, even though I knew Pete slightly to moderately well. (He was one of my father’s buddies in the ‘60s & 70’s)

In MD, NM, CA, I’d support anyone with an R after their name

She looks like she has the ‘pedigree’ to do some good for your state.

If I were in your shoes, I’d hold my nose and vote for her, versus letting another Rat have a seat at the table.

Believe me - I’ve held my nose and voted more times than I’d liked in my own state!
