UPDATE: Em Ward, a long-time Green, applied to fill the vacant state senate seat. She has a long history of peace and environmental activism. Her background in both medicine and engineering gives her a rare combination of skills and will make her an effective advocate for her district. She will be guided by the Four Pillars (Ecological Wisdom, Social Justice, Peace/Non-violence, and Grassroots Democracy) and will not be indebted to party bosses and corporate donors. If you live in Bernalillo County, please send an e-mail to the Board of Commissioners in support of her application:
- to: commission@bernco.gov
- subject line: Em Ward for SD26
- before: 5:00 p. m., Tuesday, November 15, 2022.
THANK YOU
