Congressional Candidates Clash On Financial Disclosures
- Associated Press
Republican congressional candidate Mark Moores on Tuesday criticized Democratic rival Melanie Stansbury for voting in 2019 for a budget bill in the state Legislature that benefited a one-time client of her consulting practice, in a news release.
A spokeswoman for Stansbury called the criticism a baseless political attack and highlighted Moores refusal to file a disclosure about his personal finances as a U.S. House candidate. A spokesman for Moores said that this year s delayed federal tax deadlines have stood in the way of the financial disclosure requirement.
Early in-person and absentee voting is well underway ahead of the June 1 special election to fill the 1st Congressional District seat held by Deb Haaland before her confirmation as Secretary of the Interior under President Biden.

The New Mexico Department of Health has set that target for fully reopening the state.
As of Monday, 60% of people 16 and older have received at least one vaccine dose and 48% are fully vaccinated. Vaccines are available to anyone 16 and older and appointments may be scheduled at vaccineNM.org.
