Bipartisan leadership wins

The Republican tide that swept the nation made New Mexico about as Republican as it has been since the Great Depression.
We’ve had several Republican governors during that period and once or twice Republicans have captured one of the other statewide offices. But this is the first time a Republican has been elected secretary of state since Jesusita Perrault held the office in 1930.
For many years, the Republican Party and the media have had problems with the secretary of state’s office. The GOP’s primary complaint has been that the office has allowed massive voter fraud to occur throughout the state, although that never has been proven.
The media’s problem has been with the lack of helpful, usable and timely information out of the office. With Dianna Duran, an experienced county clerk soon to be handling matters, let’s hope that both concerns can be adequately addressed.
Although Secretary of State Mary Herrera has been accused of many misdeeds, her biggest political problem seemed a result of difficulties relating to others, including members of her executive staff and county clerks, many of them Democrats.
