| Dianna Duran |
From NMPolitics.net - When I met with Republican Secretary of State candidate Dianna Duran, I expected her to hammer Democratic incumbent Mary Herrera over controversies that include allegations of criminal activity. Instead, Duran talked primarily about her own qualifications and what she wants to do in the office. “I have as much experience as anyone in the State of New Mexico related to elections,” Duran said during a recent interview in Las Cruces. Duran started working on elections in 1979 as a voting machine technician in Alamogordo. She eventually became the Otero County clerk and served two terms. She’s now in her fifth term as a state senator and has worked on election-related legislation in that capacity. Of course, in talking about herself, Duran was often implicitly contrasting her candidacy with that of Herrera. For example, she said repeatedly that she will bring “competent, dedicated, professional people” to work in the office – which contrasts with the high turnover rate Herrera has faced and the complaints from some county clerks and their staffers about a lack of competence in Herrera’s office.
