Today, Tuesday, June 7, is Election Day in the NM Primary. Helen Benson, a registered Republican, has never—ever—missed an election since she cast her first ballot in 1942. This primary election, however, she missed the signature box on the interior privacy envelope. The Clerk’s office called her; Helen retrieved her ballot. She correctly completed the information and submitted her ballot in the absentee Ballot Box at Mesa Public Library.

Thank you all the staff at the County Clerk’s office. Thank you for taking the time to track down a voter and thus ensure that she—as you do for each citizen—is able to execute her right to participate in the American democratic process! Thank you!

Please vote. The Primary determines the candidates for the General Election in November.
