Albuquerque, NM- A political showdown is brewing in New Mexico between anti-Trump, anti-America, anti-family, anti-life candidates known as “Progressive” New Mexico Democrats vs. Pro-Trump, Pro-America, Pro-Family, Pro-Life candidates that are being labeled “Hard Right” New Mexico Republicans. The line that has been drawn in the sand as the dust clears after the New Mexico primary election could not be more clear and the URGENCY more stark! The battle between good and evil, right and wrong or the good guys vs. the bad guys is coming to the political big screen in living color here in New Mexico and will be raging until the November 6th general election.
Even the Associated Press is seeing the showdown that is brewing:
Her [Lujan Grisham] victory against two primary opponents set up a showdown between an outspoken critic of President Donald Trump on immigration issues and [Steve Pearce] a member of the hard-right Freedom Caucus in Congress who campaigned for Trump in 2016.

Tara Shaver spokeswoman for Abortion Free New Mexico issued the following statement:
“A line in the sand has been drawn here in New Mexico between candidates that will protect babies lives and defend our conservative values. Between now and the New Mexico general election on November 6th pro-life conservatives must actively support and promote the candidates that will uphold the values that we hold so dear. This showdown will determine which way our state goes, to affirm life and protect the most vulnerable among us or take us down a path that will solidify New Mexico’s reputation as the Late Term Abortion Capital. Now is our chance to come together and work to elect the leaders that New Mexico desperately needs. Please keep this election and it’s candidates in your prayers and consider how you can be involved.”
This election season is just getting started and there are key positions that pro-life candidates MUST fill to secure a future for the babies in New Mexico, especially at the highest level: Governor and Lt. Governor seats.
We are working to help Michelle Garcia Holmes in her campaign for Lt. Governor and also Congressman Steve Pearce’s campaign for Governor, but we need your help. Please give your best gift today to help us elect pro-life leaders in the late term abortion capital of the nation.
