Espinosa Loses Supreme Court Case

The NM Supreme Court today ruled against Albuquerque mayoral candidate Judith Espinosa and said the Albuquerque City Clerk had acted properly and within the authority of the City Charter in deciding on the validity of candidate petition signatures. Marston Moore at Duke City Fix has the details.

The only chance for Espinosa to get on the ballot would be to prove that 1,000 of the disqualified signatures are actually registered voters in Albuquerque.
