Pearce Piles it on

Got this email from our misrepresentative regarding his run for governor: (bolding mine)

Dear Supporter,

I wanted to make sure you saw my column in the Santa Fe New Mexican.


“The same old way of doing business in Santa Fe has to end. Yes, we will run spirited campaigns. Every candidate has a vision to share with voters. But when the votes are counted and the next governor is sworn in, that person will have to represent all New Mexicans, not just one political party.”


This election is so important for our state. We are blessed with natural beauty, abundant resources, and amazing, hard-working people.

But we need leadership. Elected officials have to stop trying to score political points and focus on making life better for every New Mexican.

We need opportunity. We need to make sure people find jobs, not just in Albuquerque and Santa Fe, but across the state.

We need a vision for New Mexico’s future.

We need your help.

If you can donate $10 or $25, it will help us share a message about creating opportunity and putting people to work, fixing our broken schools, fighting crime, and attacking poverty at its roots.

I believe my vision can finally move our state forward. I believe New Mexico can do better.

If you share that belief, I hope you’ll donate $10 or $25 to help spread the word.

Thanks for your support,

Steve Pearce


"Dear Supporter"? No, I'm just on his mailing list to keep track of the damage he's doing and the BS he's spewing.

"represent all New Mexicans, not just one political party"? Yeah, been doing a great job of that in congress - trumpcare, the wall, methane. Doesn't even represent the Republican party as far as I'm concerned, only the party of trump.
