7 NM Lawmakers Could be Removed From the Ballot

Sec. of State Dianna Duran

From coshoctontribune.com -Seven legislators in New Mexico are facing the possibility of being removed from the ballot because of their voter signature forms failed to list the district numbers of the offices they're seeking. The Albuquerque Journal reports that one of the seven is Senate President Pro Tem Tim Jennings.  The Democrat from Roswell says new candidate requirements might have contributed to the confusion and predicts the issue would be easily resolved.  The others are Republican Sen. Sue Wilson Beffort of Sandia Park, Democratic Rep. James Roger Madalena of Jemez Pueblo, Democratic Sen. Pete Campos of Las Vegas, Republican Rep. Dianne Hamilton of Silver City, Democratic Rep. Rodolpho Martinez of Bayard and Republican Rep. Rick Little of Chaparral. Secretary of State Dianna Duran is expected to decide the issue next week.
