Speculation on Gallup mayor appointment centers on council
Gallup speculation swirls over who will fill the late mayor Edward Junker’s vacancy as the City Council meets to consider appointment rather than a special election. City Attorney Parmelee notes the charter requires appointment, while several councilors push to study an election. Names mentioned include current and former council members and past mayoral candidates, with Colaianni and Lewis signaling willingness to serve if chosen.

Mobil to keep McCray uranium lease in Crownpoint case
The Interior Department denied Sarah McCray's bid to cancel Mobil Oil's seven year lease on her 160 acre Crownpoint allotment. Assistant Secretary Forrest Gerrard ruled the BIA acted reasonably and found only two minor violations corrected, not enough to void the lease. A federal injunction against Mobil’s pilot leaching project was sought but opposed as delay. McCray had argued probate proceedings showed she would gain full allotment ownership.
