Today, Daily Kos congratulated Democrat Susan Herrera on her victory in the primary election for New Mexico House District 41. Daily Kos was proud to endorse Herrera in April.
“Daily Kos is thrilled that Herrera successfully ousted an incumbent who repeatedly betrayed mainstream Democratic priorities by siding with Republicans to block the expansion of voting rights, oppose marriage equality, and go soft on exploitative payday lenders,” said Daily Kos Political Director David Nir. “Herrera reflects the progressive character of this solidly blue district. Her decades of work to improve the lives of New Mexicans through nonprofit engagement are informed by her progressive values, and these values will make her a crucial voice in the legislature.”
Daily Kos has led the way in supporting Democrats across the country this cycle, raising over $5.4 million for candidates in 2017-2018. We will continue to analyze and invest in key races nationwide.
