A MAJOR ENDORSEMENT FOR ALBUQUERQUE MAYORAL CANDIDATE TIM KELLER. HE NOW HAS THE ABQ POLICE OFFICERS ASSOCIATION BEHIND HIM. THE APOA MADE THE ANNOUNCEMENT THURSDAY.
UNION REPS SAY THEY SPENT MONTHS TALKING TO ALL EIGHT CANDIDATES. THEY SAY THEY NEED A CANDIDATE WHO’S COMMITTED TO CHANGE. A STATEMENT RELEASED BY THE UNION SAYS KELLER IS THEIR CANDIDATE BECAUSE … AMONG OTHER THINGS … THEY BELIEVE HE’LL RAISE OFFICER PAY AND BRING IN MORE RECRUITS WITH THAT … AND WOULD CHANGE THE LEADERSHIP AT APD.
