Sen. Ortiz y Pino and DFNM on Today's Insight NM Radio Show

Show3montage
Montage with last week's guests on Insight New Mexico.

Be sure to tune in Insight New Mexico's weekly political show on Albuquerque's Progressive Talk Radio 1350 AM today from 3:00 to 4:00 PM. Eric Griego and sidekick producer Suzanne Prescott will be interviewing one of our local Dem heroes -- NM Sen. Gerald Ortiz y Pino -- who has sponsored the NM impeachment bill, the medical marijuana bill, the working families tax credit and many other progressive measures, as well as Eric Mack, head producer for the NM News Service. Eric will also be talking with some APS and CNM board candidates in the February 6th election in Albuquerque.

I'm also excited to report that we (Barbara Wold and Mary Ellen Broderick) will be featured on the show's blogger segment today representing Democracy for New Mexico. Wish us luck - we're definitely new to radio interviews!

To learn more about Insight New Mexico and today's guests, download podcasts from previous shows, stay current with guests on upcoming shows, or join the discussion, visit their website and blog at .

Listeners are encouraged to phone in questions during the show by calling 338-4090.

If we want progressive talk radio to continue in Albuquerque, now's the time to show your support by tuning in and spreading the word to your friends, neighbors and colleagues.

P.S. Eric Griego is now a regular columnist at the Albuquerque Tribune. Check out his column.

Did you see that Daniel Ivy-Soto is claiming that "numerous" people told him over the years that they fraudulently voted using the names of people who they knew would not vote?

I don't believe this. I am saying DIS is a liar.

Do you have a cite on this alleged statement by Ivy-Soto? Or are you just spreading weird rumors?

Cool that you and Mary Ellen are on the radio show today. I'll be listening!

Front page of Friday Tribune, whole article on it. It is against the law, he is a lawyer, he should have reported it. He is now working in the elections bureau with Mary Hererra.

I say it is BS.

Excellent show. I thought Ortiz y Pino and Barb were very good. The other guests too. We need a show like this with local guests and politics. Thanks to Eric Griego and Suzanne Prescott for making it happen.

Barb and Mary Ellen, I want to appologize for not listening. I was driving from Mora to Las Vegas, boy was it beautiful, and could not hear it there.

To answer the comments regarding Ivy Soto. I am very concerned about his comments. I agree with the comments in the article that as an office or the court he has an obligation to turn these people in. Prior to this we have had a lot of allegations of voter fraud but nothing that could be tracked. Now as head of elections for the state he has a responsibility to find these people and guarantee that they can never vote double again!
