The particular ethical lapse Jim mentions is well-documented. Karen Montoya had <i>ex parte</i> communications with regulated entities, and even read speeches ghost-written by PNM. The plain facts are that Montoya is ethically challenged in several ways. These are not actions to be tolerated by Democrats!<br /><br />Cynthia Hall's application for public financing was rejected on a technicality. Rather than appeal, and risk losing weeks of the use of campaign money at a critical time, Ms. Hall decided to self-finance. That is not unethical, and it is not connected to conservation organizations' decision to endorse her and spend money independently. <br /><br />Karen Montoya was qualified to be County Assessor, no matter how well or poorly she ran that office. Unfortunately, she was unprepared for the position of PRC Commissioner, and she's done a poor job representing us.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12918520551813001969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11762382.post-53618944078940843332016-06-01T19:01:06.397-06:002016-06-01T19:01:06.397-06:00It's understandable voting for Hillary.

I'm just afraid she's going to set the women's movement back a hundred years.<br /><br />Oh, that we had a woman running like Melonie Mathews, one of the Gathering of Nations organizers, who told the University of New Mexico's top brass to their faces they were "a group inept, ham-handed chicken shits." <br /><br />http://www.abqjournal.com/782917/unm-booted-gathering-after-longsimmering-feud.html<br /><br />Will Hillary say that to congress the first time they're deadlocked? Will she say that to the generals when they lose the next war? Probably not. She probably tried that with Bill and it didn't work.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11762382.post-63077442967721267912016-06-01T11:05:08.633-06:002016-06-01T11:05:08.633-06:00As usual you are way off base making unsubstantiat...As usual you are way off base making unsubstantiated comments to promote your own agenda and candidates. Karen Montoya qualified for public finance and her opponent did not. Her opponent personally attacks Montoya in public degrading her as not being educated, not being a lawyer and then has supporters from the conservation community run negativetive ads against Montoya.
