A LOOK AT WHO MIGHT TAKE OVER NEW MEXICO’S GOVERNOR’S MANSION AFTER SUSANA MARTINEZ LEAVES. THE ALBUQUERQUE JOURNAL REPORTS THAT SENATOR TOM UDALL AND CONGRESSWOMAN MICHELLE LUJAN GRISHAM ARE SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING A GUBERNATORIAL RUN.
CONGRESSMAN STEVE PEARCE TELLS THE JOURNAL HE’D AT LEAST CONSIDER THE IDEA.
THE 68 YEAR OLD UDALL HAS BEEN THINKING ABOUT RUNNING FOR GOVERNOR IN THE STATE FOR MORE THAN A YEAR NOW. LUJAN GRISHAM SAYS THE JOB APPEALS TO HER BECAUSE BEING GOVERNOR HAS MORE POWER THAN BEING A MEMBER OF CONGRESS.
