According to a poll commissioned by the leftist New Mexico Political Report (NMPR), which is affiliated with the George Soros-funded ProgressNow New Mexico, Democrat Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham is in serious trouble.
The poll shows Lujan Grisham barely leading with 45%. Republican gubernatorial nominee Mark Ronchetti trails with 42%, while 9% said they are voting for Libertarian Karen Bedonie. Bedonie was formerly running for governor as a Republican but switched her party affiliation. She won the Libertarian primary against write-in candidate Ginger Grider.
According to NMPR, the poll is within the margin of error for Lujan Grisham — showing dangerous territory for the vulnerable Democrat. It was done by Public Policy Polling, which is rated an A- on FiveThirtyEight and skews Democrat by 0.9 percentage points.
“Lujan Grisham holds a large lead among those who voted for Biden in 2020, 86 percent to 6 percent, with 4 percent saying they would vote for Bedonie. Ronchetti, meanwhile, leads among Trump voters 88 percent to 8 percent for Bedonie and 1 percent for Lujan Grisham,” wrote NMPR.
A recent internal poll from the Ronchetti campaign showed that Lujan Grisham is trailing him by one point, but it did not specify if respondents voting for Bedonie were factored in.
The seat is one that is in the pick-up column for Republicans. The Republican Governors Association (RGA)-affiliated “Get Families Back to Work” group has already booked hundreds of thousands in television airtime targeting Lujan Grisham on multiple scandals, including the misuse of her discretionary fund to buy luxury $200/lb Wagyu beef steaks, alcohol (which is prohibited), and other unscrupulous goods, such as dry cleaning and products for her pet.
The Albuquerque Journal reported that the RGA was spending around $179,000 so far this cycle in New Mexico.
So the GOP is going to allow the vote to be split again and the scumbag Little Tyrant will get re-elected.
Well, it’s our job to get out there and campaign for Ronchetti. Make sure he is elected.
Ronchetti was planted by the Uniparty (aka the “GOP”) split itself for the primary. With the Libertarians doing their usual job of reducing the Republican voter base, you may as well call the election now for Lujan-Grisham. It’s over folks!
Don’t give up so easily!! That’s what NM voters/taxpayers seem to do ALL the time!!

Yep.
fu**tards rule.
The ONLY Gov’t position Moochie Loserjan needs to hold is keeping her orange jumpsuit clean and being dependent on the guards to open the door and let her in the lunch line once a day
Ronchetti was planted by the Uniparty (aka“GOP”) which split itself in three to give him the win at the primary. With the Libertarians doing their usual job of reducing the Republican voter base for November, you may as well call the election now for Lujan-Grisham. Until you get rid of Steve Pearce and and his establishment buddies in the NM GOP, New Mexico will remain blue. It’s over folks!
What should NM taxpayers do?? Crawl under a rock covering our heads??
Keep voting blue. You like being a crime ridden welfare state. Schools suck. Grisham cost so many jobs with her lockdowns. Bailbonds, we don’t need them, we just turn them loose. We don’t need a stinking border wall. We get our drugs and guns man with no border. Rock on dumbasses.
NM Republican’s and NM libertarians needs to learn to stand together before the Wicked Witch of NM wins again. Every time the vote gets split these evil Democraps win elections. Wake up New Mexico. MLG hates you and she will further destroy our state. She sells us out to communists.
