Phillip Archuleta |
A newly elected state lawmaker in New
Mexico is facing heat after a newly posted YouTube video showed him giving an
opponent's campaign worker a vulgar gesture on Election Day.
State
Rep.-elect Phillip Archuleta apologized Monday following news about the online
video where he is recorded flipping his middle finger at the campaign worker.
In
the video, the 63-year-old Democrat, who won the District 36 House seat by
defeating the incumbent, Hatch resident Andy Nunez, also is heard threatening a
photographer while at a polling station.
Archuleta said he regretted his
actions and should have been more professional.
