Many of the Bernie volunteers in Southern New Mexico were already on the ground, campaigning for local candidates and they will be taking part in Getting Out The Vote for down ballot democrats who represent progressive values.

But last Saturday, they had a very successful turnout for its public meeting where they talked about the transition into Southern New Mexico New Progressives and about channelling their energies into local progressive campaigns. They reported on the completion of their bylaws and heard from the candidates below who took questions on their stands on local issues. PLEASE email lc4b@lascrucesforbernie.org. to reach their leadership so you can get involved and volunteer for there very worthy progressive candidates.
