Tax figures spark Democratic Republican county split
The New Mexican reports data from a Colorado Springs pamphlet showing tax payments by southeastern New Mexico voters. It contrasts Democratic counties with Republican ones, noting per voter taxes and election results, including Chaves and Santa Fe counties, and describing J Z Hagerman’s South Springs ranch as a major, burdened holding in the Pecos Valley.
Roswell as an Example Not Janey in Tax Debate
A Roswell example is used to critique the New Mexican editorial claims about territorial tax payments. The piece argues southeastern New Mexico counties pay far more per voter than Taos, highlighting Chaves and Eddy counties and noting Luna and Santa Fe as comparisons.
