How does being "1/2 Hispanic and 1/2 Italian" obviate being 'White'?

Anyway, I can't vote in the primary but I agree that compared to Martinez,, Denish seems milquetoast and I don't think Weh has as much marketability in Central and northern New Mexico.

Bradly drew the distinction between "Hispanics" and "Whites" and it's pretty funny coming from a guy who used to call himself "Half-Hispanic". I guess he's only Hispanic sometimes....not when speaking about immigration.

I'm pulling for Turner now. But I will fully support the republican candidate that wins the primary to get rid of the current corrupt party.

Not when it comes to governor. Out of 19 governors of New Mexico territory, only one had a Hispanic name.

Out of 26 governors of the State of New Mexico, only four had a Hispanic name.

The poll is for Governor. Since Governor Richardson is probably the most corrupt governor in the US and Denish was right below him while he bankrupted the State. And she is the only on running on the Dem ticket it would be a good time to get rid of the Corruption. So WOW back at you.

That's a serious accusation on a publicly elected figure.

Do you have anything other than your opinion to back that up?
