ALBUQUERQUE CITY COUNCILOR PAT DAVIS IS DROPPING OUT OF THE RACE FOR THE FIRST DISTRICT CONGRESSIONAL NOMINATION ON THE DEMOCRATIC SIDE…AND HE SAYS HE’S NOW SUPPORTING DEB HAALAND. POLITICAL BLOGGER JOE MONAHAN SAYS, WITH ONLY FIVE PERCENT SUPPORT IN A RECENT POLL, DAVIS’S ENDORSEMENT PROBABLY WON’T BE A BIG DEAL. BUT HE SAYS IN A TIGHT RACE, DAVIS COULD TAKE CREDIT FOR HAALAND IF SHE SQUEAKS OVER THE FINISH LINE.
THE JOURNAL POLL INDICATED A CLOSE RACE BETWEEN HAALAND, DAMON MARTINEZ, AND ANTOINETTE SEDILLO LOPEZ. THE OTHER CANDIDATES WERE FAR BEHIND.
