A recent Journal Poll, conducted between August 21 and August 28, indicates that Luján has the support of 53% of likely voters, while Marker trails with 38%. The poll surveyed 516 likely New Mexico voters and has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.3 percentage points.

Rep. Henry Cuellar Co-Sponsors Bill to Reverse VA Home-Based Care Reimbursement Cuts for Rural Veterans

Representative Henry Cuellar has joined as an original co-sponsor of the "Protecting Home-Based Care for Rural Veterans Act of 2026." This House bill aims to reverse recent reimbursement cuts made by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for home-based care services. The proposed legislation seeks to restore reimbursement levels to those in effect before January 1, 2026. Additionally, it mandates a 90-day notice period before any future cuts are implemented and requires the VA to provide more detailed information regarding provider access and its rate-setting methodologies. Supporters of the bill highlight the adverse impacts of these cuts in states like Texas and New Mexico, while the VA has previously stated that earlier rates were above market levels. The bill has garnered bipartisan co-sponsors and endorsements from various veteran and home-care organizations. In related financial news, Cuellar disclosed $520,000 in fundraising during Q2 2026, with 65.2% from individual donors, and reported $245,900 ...

Rio Rancho Residents Challenge City's Use of Flock Safety Camera Network

Rio Rancho Residents Challenge City's Use of Flock Safety Camera Network

Four residents of Rio Rancho, New Mexico, have urged the city's governing body to discontinue its contract with Flock Safety, the vendor for the city's automated license plate reader (ALPR) network. The network, which has expanded to 19 cameras citywide, records every passing license plate. Residents argue that this constitutes warrantless mass surveillance and an infringement on privacy, with Joaquin Montoya of DeFlock New Mexico stating it creates a 'database of the innocent.' Matt Griffin called for more transparency regarding data access and storage, while Chris Adams expressed concern about building surveillance infrastructure that future governments could inherit. Another resident cited a Fourth Amendment violation. In response, Mayor Paul Wymer acknowledged the criticism but also noted receiving feedback from other residents who are content with the surveillance systems. Rio Rancho Police reported to councilors on August 18 that the cameras contributed to the recovery of 74 stolen vehicles, 50 stole...
