2026 CANDIDATE 'JOB INTERVIEWS'
To help voters understand candidate positions and improve transparency, NMBC held in person “Job Interviews” with some of the top candidates running for office in New Mexico. Both candidates were invited to be interviewed. In all cases only one candidate showed up.
Candidates had a few rules to follow: the questions weren’t given in advance, they had to answer the question asked and they had to keep their answers within a set time limit. Click on a name below to see their interview.
