UPDATE: Will the Corruption in New Mexico Government ever come to an end? After moving here in 1995 and meeting Hall-of-Fame Broadcaster Frank Haley at KOB AM where he anchored the news for years, he said to me, “Welcome to the land of corruption.” Will New Mexico ever have a GOOD GOVERNOR? Hasn’t happened since I have lived here! Something is greatly wrong here, it is spiritual. Once again I thank John Block for reporting on this story and I know he will follow it all the way. We have way to much corruption in New Mexico, Albuquerque Public Schools, Rio Aribia County, Las Vegas, NM, and on and on we go……Corruption in the Albuquerque Mayoral race by the Sheriff!!!! Why does not the County Commissioners sensor the Sheriff??????? Your hopeless New Mexico unless you end this corruption that keeps growing…I do not know where this case against Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham is going to go….but you must learn to FOLLOW THE MONEY! All these stinking messes are an awful example to our Children! How can we expect our children to respect public officials? Proverbs 11:14 Without wise leadership, a nation falls; there is safety in having many advisers. 1 Cor. 4:2: Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful. From Adrian Rogers: A Christian with a testimony is never at the mercy of an unbeliever with an argument!

I just had a chat with John Block on Facebook messenger. I thanked him or his reporting. This is such a very, very bad sign of all the continued corruption in our state. It makes me sick to my stomach!

John Block Reports:

On Monday, Zach DeGriego, the former Chief Financial Officer of Spaceport America from December 21, 2015, to June 21, 2020, announced he had filed a civil complaint against Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham over an alleged fraud of $200 million.

THE HILL REPORTS:

The gubernatorial election landscape in 2022 is shaping up to be competitive as Republicans look to flip a number of governors’ mansions across the country.

Republicans are feeling momentum after Virginia Gov.-elect Glenn Youngkin‘s victory in November, when he became the first Republican to win a statewide race in the blue-leaning state since 2009. The party says the political environment is prime for Republicans to oust a number of vulnerable Democratic governors this year, including Gov. Laura Kelly in Kansas and Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in Michigan.

While Grisham appears to be in a stronger position than other Democratic incumbent governors, with the Cook Political Report rating her race as “likely Democratic,” Republicans have set their sights on her seat.

The Santa Fe New Mexican Lists Rebecca Dow and Mark Ronchetti as the top choices in the field of GOP candidates. More Here

A top New Mexico Republican told me that Dow and John Block have been polling well. This was just about a week after Ronchetti made his announcement.

The GOP has a very strong group of candidates running this year. The one candidate that makes the sanctity of life her platform is Ethel Maharg. Ethel is the strongest candidate against abortion. For me, ending abortion in New Mexico is of the highest priority. The sinning in New Mexico starts with killing God’s babies. Ethel speaks of it all the time. Will New Mexico pay attention to the abortion issue?

Needless to say, things are going to get very interesting! Will the GOP convert enough Dems?

HUGE LOSS! NM State Rep. Alonzo Baldonado Resigns From House of Representatives

This sure caught me by surprise and from what I am reading I don’t think I am the only one. This is a huge loss for New Mexico. Huge loss for the GOP, as Alonzo is a true leader! I remember when Alonzo came into the KKIM Radio studio years ago with his lovely wife to announce he was going to run for office. He made an impression on me that family is so very important to him and his wife. Yes! The family unit! The family unit in New Mexico is being torn apart in so many ways. My thoughts are, it is going to get tougher to get solid people like Alonzo to run with office with such chaos in state and federal government. Thank you Alonzo for all your hard work! We will be praying for you and your family as you go forth into 2022. Amen! I was thanking God for your service Alonzo, and the thought came to me, I do not get the opportunity to write about SOLID LEADERS often enough! You have made a wonderful impact on many.

Rep. Alonzo Baldonado retiring from state legislature

Los Lunas, NM – State Representative Alonzo Baldonado (R-Los Lunas) today announced he is retiring from serving NM House District 8 in Valencia County. Rep. Baldonado has served in the New Mexico Legislature since 2011 and was the House Majority Whip from 2015 through 2017.

“Today I am retiring from serving in House District 8, in Valencia County,” said State Representative Alonzo Baldonado (R-Los Lunas). “I am proud of the work our community has done over the past decade and I hope that in a small way I was able to help with those efforts to make Los Lunas, Bosque Farms, Peralta, Rio Communities and Belen a better place to live. I look forward to seeing continued growth in our community and state.”

Rep. Baldonado is a member of the House Education Committee and House Commerce & Economic Development Committee. Representing Valencia County, Rep. Baldonado has pursued efforts to support the community through economic development and infrastructure improvement. Most recently, Rep. Baldonado and other area lawmakers were successful in a decades-long effort to deliver a much needed hospital and additional freeway interchange for Los Lunas to the county.

“First I would like to thank Rep. Alonzo Baldonado for his service to Valencia County and our entire state, his presence and knowledge of the legislative process will be greatly missed,” said House Republican Leader Jim Townsend (Artesia). “From serving as the House Majority Whip to serving on the Education Committee, and standing up for conservative values, Rep. Baldonado has always worked diligently to move New Mexico towards prosperity. Our entire Republican caucus sends our thanks to Rep. Baldonado and wishes him the best in the future.”

According to state law, the Valencia County Commission will appoint a replacement State Representative for House District 8.

Rep. Alonzo Baldonado
