governor and that has just mapped. the state's governor is suzanna martinez. she picked an albuquerque city councillor named brad winter. and they swore mr. winter into office immediately as soon as the governor designated him as her choice. now, i propose to you that at first blush, this mid career mr. winter may not seem like a radical choice for this statewide job, the secretary of state gig. he's a long-time public servant. he's a teacher, he's a high school sports coach. there's nothing controversial about him, nothing particularly ground breaking about him as a choice, but for this particular job there's something interesting. consider the previous secretaries of state in retroactive order starting with the recently disgraced diane duran. before her, mary herrera, before her, rebeck ka villa, before that villa-heron again.
