Finally here's a Democrat who's NOT running for Lieutenant. Governor.State Auditor Hector Balderas announced this morning he's seeking re-election.
"Seven years ago, I entered public service as a young prosecutor with the goal to make a positive difference in the lives of others. Taking a path which began in a small office cubicle to now serving as your State Auditor has been a remarkable journey. I have chosen to take a stand and fight against public corruption, conflicts of interest, and unaccountable governments and officials. Additionally, I have partnered with citizens statewide to gather anonymous tips to strengthen oversight through my fraud hotline. With just 30 brave employees and one of the smallest budgets in the state, we have created an expectation and a reality that New Mexico will have an independent voice to speak on behalf of taxpayers and on the real conditions of our government. There is much more important work to be done. For these reasons, I have chosen to continue on this path and seek a second term as your State Auditor."
