NM-02: Two More Endorsements for McCamley
Today Congressional candidate and Doña Ana County Commissioner Bill McCamley announced two more endorsements in the race for New Mexico’s Second Congressional District. The Ruidoso News endorsed Bill in an editorial on May 29th. United Steelworkers Local 9424 President David Carrillo announced that the Local had endorsed Bill in a letter to the editor in The Las Cruces Sun-News today.
The letter states that the Local represents “330 city blue-collar employees.” It goes on to state of the candidates that the Local endorsed that “[w]e believe these are the candidates that have shown their commitment to our state and our community. We stand behind these individuals and put our confidence in them to lead us in the right direction, and to make decisions that best serve the people they represent.”
McCamley has previously been endorsed by The Las Cruces Sun-News, The Silver City Daily Press, The Roswell Daily Record, the American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees (AFSCME), the Sierra Club, 2006 Democratic nominee Al Kissling, Democracy for America, the New Mexico Building and Construction Trades Council, and IAFF Firefighters Locals in Deming and Las Cruces. He has also been endorsed by numerous present and former Democratic officials in New Mexico’s Second District (see www.billmccamley.com for more information).

I'm so glad Harry Teague has run a positive campaign. Harry Teague's votes will be a for him.
Unlike the negative campaign of Mccamley, the Mccamley vote is a vote against his opponent. I wouldn't want that type of victory, not going into the November.

Teague has run a lousy campaign of all ads and no debates. They barely let him talk in the ads because he is so inarticulate. He just throws money at the district and thinks that will cause him to win. He's too old for the job and not well educated.
There are plenty of positive reasons to vote for McCamley. The biggest one is that he looks forward to our renewable energy future and not backwards to protect his oil field friends. He's also got a ton of energy, common sense, intelligence, good humor and has been very successful working for the common good in his current and past government positions. The people have funded his campaign not the rich oil men.
