FORMER CONGRESSMAN STEVE PEARCE, WHO’S NOW RUNNING FOR GOVERNOR OF NEW MEXICO ON THE REPUBLICAN TICKET, SAYS HE APPLAUDS WHAT THE SUPREME COURT DID WITH THE PLAN TO IMPLEMENT STRAIGHT TICKET VOTING. PEARCE SAYS THE HIGH COURT IS PROTECTING NEW MEXICO’S ELECTORAL PROCESS. HE ALSO SAYS SECRETARY OF STATE MAGGIE TOULOUSE OLIVER WAS TRYING TO RIG THE ELECTION IN NOVEMBER IN THE DEMOCRATS’ FAVOR.
DR. GAVIN CLARKSON, THE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR SECRETARY OF STATE, SAYS THE JOB DOES NOT CALL FOR TOULOUSE OLIVER OR ANY OTHER SECRETARY OF STATE TO MAKE LAW, BUT TO ENFORCE THE LAWS PASSED BY ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES.
