My Take on the Albuquerque Mayor’s Race

Liberal New Mexico Sen. Jerry Ortiz y Pino writes a regular column for the Albuquerque Alibi. While we often disagree on policy, he wrote a column about the Mayoral race recently, “We Were Mugged” that had me disagreeing with some of his analysis of why Republican RJ Berry won. I’m not sure if Ortiz y Pino just wanted to cast doubt on the process, if he’s pushing for changes, or if it was just a case of sour grapes, but Democrats were not “mugged.”
